They had it all – but nothing as well
(Unable to finish a single row)
They had everything – and nothing to tell
A little time lived a long while ago
They had what they wanted but not what they saw
(Desire reaps envy in all that they yearn)
Avariciously craving for more than can be
A little time known – a long while to learn
They saw others with better than any a day
And asked for another to make up some space
Falling by wayside on road to where to
A little bit filled – a long while to face
Tomorrow comes fast but lasts barely enough
(Jump to the sign of a sun filled with more)
Dark – an enigma – enough yet to gain
A little more wanted – a long while enthralled
They knew others with plenty yet asked of themselves
Why bother to chase – it’s a mystery turn
Take less to retain and give more to impart
Don’t care for enough – desire should burn
Though others had more than a smile to be
Feelings add meaning to what they can count
Run away, run away, run higher to see
Enough is enough when you stand on the mount.
