Hope 2 dream

While I lay awake I listen 2 noise as residents go by
i lookย around but all I see is nothing just the bed I lay In
so I close my eyes and Hope pray 2 God asking 4 more
then I think Wat of kids stuck in middle of war hopen 2 live 2 c smotherย  day
am I selfish as I've got Hostel 2 stay in with 1 dinner 1 sandwich available 2 me
I suddenly feel guilty r I'm not sure if it's fear as I know at any moment with 1 flickย  of a pen me and r my partner r out the door
for reasons we cannot control 6 Mth bed extended if management decide
I stay in my room my partner does to an were told mix with residents some more
then we try as its a wet house alwAys sum1 to get smart pissedย  up
defend me tats Wat u do then if u win your told leave a day to a month on streets u can't win cold nights wAlking around no place 2 go so u sit on bk stairs in apartment block summers silently not making a sound as u not want 2 feel the bitter air cut trewย  u r the rain soaked ur clothes socks and feet all u long 4 is a decent meal a warm bed not sure how long I can hope no more this government need a crisis plan 4 I am not racist my man is from a farย  away land but if government can't house their Irish citizens why accept more seems 2 me Irish ppl r now least priority of allย 
us Irish wen we fallย  we fallย  hard work 4wecantย  escape 2claim welfare housing costs in a different stateย 
so I hope tat god hears my cry for him2 reconise indeed ppl like me for a miracle 2 live actually liveย  accomplish a home a place 2 call my own not continue to exist not living just going 1 day 2 next wAtching the wourld go by only prospects r 2 try not b noticed and remain in chains in a wet house hostel though i dont drink a drop noise arguments I feel I cud lose the plot
yet this is my lot so I dream small and remain in hope but it's dinen so fast some days I think I will not last so here I am layingย  in a bed no wardrobe living frma bag remembering children caught up in war not allowing my self to think about this at all for I'm 35 homeless and I've got feckall
ย mad 2 want more is it bad to want 2 choises of food all my belongings I lost Wat I wear I do not like I haven'tย  a choice all I've got is HOPE..

tis is 1st attempt will read and fix itย
