Material Things

by jay-bryant

Its sad to see People of my generation Looking for material things Leaving love abaft And not looking back. Eyes dead forward Never in the past Not looking for their mistakes While they dead in they face Minds are to abstracted Steady distracted Envying material things. The pain that it brings When these things Are lost in a fire. It burns my heart to know They think they bought Their soul, but never learned True Happiness.
