Selfish by nature;
Humans are perfect images of envy, lust, hatred cruelty.
Look longingly to those on the other side wishing to be more like them, cry, scream and envy.
Envying for strength, beauty, and pride begins to consume while sinful thoughts revolve around what we could become, straying from what we need to fall upon.
Centers forming into the ideal picture of jealously, changes from the inside as arrogance takes place, leaving us closed minded to ration, leaving behind all compassion so we can
scar the few who are left last, selfless souls who somehow aged quicker in spirit.
Yet the rest see only a stepping stool to success without peers to compete.
Introducing ourselves, a friend who will “always be there” say a silent pray, hoping this isn’t another deceitful act. Yet putting hope into the ones who have successfully left them broken and torn. At least they are left with some sense of use, watching us climb to the top with false praise calling our names, seeing us push guilt under loud voices, yelling “Look what I have done!”
Forgetting the foundation of their wealth.
Soon the power turns to greed and asking for too much, depending on nothing but luck.
But luck only goes so far and they watch wondering how someone can become so self-centered that we are our own worst fate.
Sitting in the now dead grass, head low in shame of what we could have accomplished.
Draining and tearing down the only ones willing to help us stand, being worried about being able to fly with broken wings that hadn’t yet been earned.
Begging for help as the ones we stepped over look on us.
“Why won’t you help me? You built me up, now be my foundation once again.”
But we know what the answer is, by this time we have turned their flesh hearts to stone, and they have grown too cold.
