My 2nd Birthday Is Coming Up But I’m Homeless

My 2nd Birthday Is Coming Up But I’m Homeless

Living on the streets has its own set of challenges. The days blend together in a blur of survival, with each one demanding a new way to cope with hunger, cold, and loneliness. I often see other children playing, their laughter a stark reminder of what I am missing. My birthday, usually a time of joy and festivity, feels overshadowed by my daily struggles.

The thought of celebrating my birthday without a home or a family to share it with is disheartening. I imagine a day without cake or presents, just another ordinary day spent searching for a safe place to sleep. Yet, amid the hardship, there is a flicker of hope. I hold onto the possibility that someone might notice me, that I might find a kind soul who could offer a bit of warmth and comfort on my special day.

The reality of my situation is harsh, but I dream of a future where I am no longer defined by my homelessness. My birthday wish is simple: to be seen, to be cared for, and to have a place where I truly belong. As I approach my second birthday, I hold onto that hope, hoping that with time, my circumstances will change, and I will finally find a place to call home.
