Why are you so complex? Why does covetousness never snooze? Why stir emotions into a vortex? Why inflict this mental bruise? Must you always be larger than life? Must you always overshadow? Must you act like a desperado? Must nothing in your life be adequate? You don't see me frown You don't seem to see, you clown You don't seem to empathise You don't seem to realise Always it happens Always it's happened Always I'm sighing Always I'm silently crying Overshadow my quiet mind Overshadow my sadness Overshadow my gladness Overshadow any recent find Everything must jointly entwine Everything must not be out-rightly mine Everything must glow! Everything does not, it's in your shadow Why? Oh! Why? do I end up feeling like a sideline? Written By Kris Prevel June 2014

Overshadowed by Covetousness
Why are you so complex? Why does covetousness never snooze? Why stir emotions into a vortex? Why inflict this mental bruise? Must you always be larger than life? Must you always overshadow? Must you act like a desperado? Must nothing in your life be adequate?
