 I am

I am a person who wants to help you,

I wonder how you could be so …

Un-wealthy and yet be happy.

I hear the cries for food, for water,

and a decent home.

I see the few things that you have,

I want to give you every one of your needs,

Since I am a person who wants to help you


I pretend that I am where you are ...

I feel so sad for you and want to cry.

I touch the picture that you are in, and

I worry about your children.

I cry to myself of what I have heard,

Since I am a person who wants to help you


I understand the pain you go through

every day.

I say that I am so sorry …

but I don’t know what for.

I dream that one day I will be there

for you, and

I try to get my mind on

Something else.


And I want to learn all about you ! And I want to learn all about you !

I hope to somehow meet you,

and come to your house …

Since I am a person

who wants to help you,

--Jamie Carr​

What haunting thoughts of a deep desire to be of service. I pray you are able to follow your passion, and that others receive it well.
