Many have slain the king in the board
Envy immediately poisoned my heart
It slowly took control of my mind
Eating me alive, a feeling not so kind
So I ripped the beat out my chest
And strove for greatness, for the best

A new human has started their journey;
Her joyful surroundings being the key
To a childhood full of love and smiles
Made her want to adventure several miles.

"I want to adventure endlessly!
I want to be grown! I want to go freely!"
The child wholeheartedly prayed to the heavens.
Her ambitious letter was then sent by ravens.

The gods granted the ultimate wish,
And the change was fast and swish.
Discovered multiple advantages,
Yet her heart was filled with anxiousness.

Days passed by a blink of the eye;
Everything in the world has a price.
They crushed her dream, not less a dime,
Using the expensive life and time.

The obstacles of hell had started;
Seven darts of sins hit the target,
Turning the once innocent
To a hungry and selfish serpent.

Loneliness and pain became numbness.
Now, I have forgotten some instances,
Like to mourn my dead previous self,
And how to wish earnestly to an elf.

And so, the once child faded into the mist;
Affection and elation ceased to exist.
No more wishes, no more dreams to find,
Only silence and the echoes left behind.

I have yet to finish my piece
But so many have already passed
Once ahead in the early years of peace
Now I linger, longing for the past

I remember it all too well
It breaks my fragile heart and I dwell
Not because of sadness but something evil
I must do something about this, I shall ****
Not the person above me in my memory
But the one who poisoned my blood with ivy

A heavy heart began the adventure,
With a distance farther than ever.
I shall shape into another mold,
To chase a prize, though it feels cold.

You are above the common people
Not by the value of life, but in governance
In the big picture, your job is simple
To serve people with diligence

You are paid rightfully, no more, no less
You live off the people's resources
Yet you still oppress the ones you work for
We are not as clueless as before

You may hide behind golden laurels
You may deceive our sharp senses
You may **** your own morals
But you will never fool the heavens

I ended my day with a cry
You may be wondering why
I lost something not once, but twice
And the number of tasks are on the rise

Did I just dodge a bite of a snake?
Or is this really just my fate?
Yet through the haze, I still try to smile
Hoping this would all end with time

Now, as I am writing this text
I realized what could be next
These past few days, I may be unlucky
But perhaps tomorrow, I will be lucky
