Money
Power
Glory
that is the goal right?
right?
perhaps not
perhaps it is finding what you love most
and giving your dying breath for it
what if it is about seeking your passion
and giving up everything you know for it
unapologetically
or what if it is the smile on your little sisters face
looking up at you with so much hope
that same hope you would see slowly flicker from your own eyes
reborn in new small green eyes
before the world has bit its teeth so deep in yet
perhaps it is the tear you wipe from your best friends face
the heartbreaking glance, as if the tears has made her eyes like glass
her dark eyes, that whisper
where have they gone?
true pain, that you yourself have felt many times
because life can be so unforgiving
cruel really
...
but life, it can also be beautiful too
it allows us to feel
to touch
emotion
sensation
Alive
if that is what we are
so i ask you, lover
is
Money
Power
and Glory
truly the point after all?
