[ WP ] Compose a meaningful poem about something happening around you right now .

Beige is the page upon which I lie 
 
 They tweak and they drink, they freak and they cry, 
 
 Even the troubled ones who do n't want to die. 
 
 It's tough to watch, in my small little perch, 
 
 They wish they were outside, in the shade of a birch. 
 
 Voices call to them and lead them astray, 
 
 My job is to love them so they live another day. 
 
 Some come for help, some manipulate the system, 
 
 But somewhere they all have a mother to miss them. 
 
 I wish I could take the away the nightmares, 
 
 Show them that someone truly cares... 
 
 But much to my dismay, 
 
 Their demons ca n't be kept at bay.
