About the Book
All Alone
I’m falling I’m brawling to survive I’m calling but they’re ignoring to help save my life Desperately out of strife I scream I’ve fallen and I can’t get up Discouraged and stuck up I try doing it on my own That’s why I’m falling all alone I’m perspiring I’m trying to finish this race It’s tiring I feel like retiring but I keep my pace With sweat on my face I spit on the ground On this track I go around Breathing heavy I raise my tone Why oh God must I run all alone Keep your lives free From the love of money And be content With what you have Because God has said “Never will I leave thee Never will I forsake thee.” So we say with confidence “The Lord is my helper And I will not be afraid What can man do to me?” Hebrews 13:5-6About the Author
Baruch Santana was born in Lower East Side of New York City in 1984 and a few months later moved with his family to Brooklyn, where he grew up. He has two beautiful children, Matthew and Elena, whom he loves dearly. He has no greater passion than writing and slamming poetry.
