Drip

As the sink slowly drips Water down the drain The sound is enough To make a man go insane Life is alike Water down the drain For sometimes life is enough To make anyone go insane Some are wealthy Some are poor Some just desire Just a little bit more Yet the answer is this One must find the joy Alike the young With a child’s toy If happiness is not found And obsession takes hold Money is nothing After your body turns old While living all the money Will buy anything While living all the money Is a horrible thing Money is a curse Wealth is an addiction This is just an educated Teen’s prediction While the rich get whatever They want and desire And dress in expensive Fancy attire All the poor and the helpless Find the entire thrill By noticing that happiness Comes not in the fill Of the bank, yet it comes With the notification of small Things, ones notice Even a sensual phone call One finds joy Even in the rainfall Rich and perfect Happy or poor One should always Find more
