Poetic-Verses

'' You'll Die Old And Alone ''

Being obsessed by riches,
Fortune and fame,
Can be really bad for your health,
When it bewitches,
You're no longer the same,
Your life's preoccupied by wealth.

You become suspicious,
Of family and friends,
Are they with you just for the money,
Are they being pernicious,
Soon evil transcends,
You believe they're all acting funny.

Who can you trust,
Are they after your cash?
Do they love you or want to cause strife?
You feel it's unjust,
So, your money you stash,
You'll be rich for the rest of your life.

You're carrying a boulder,
Paranoia creeps in,
Though you're rich your happiness is scarce,
You look over your shoulder,
Your worries begin,
Which one will put you in a hearse.

Now living in fear,
You become a recluse,
Those around you can feel your resentment,
As they disappear,
You can feel the abuse,
Your money can't buy you contentment.

Though materially plush,
You're in a sad state,
You regret the seeds you have sown,
With money your flush,
But what you really hate,
Is the fact,
