Transient Things

Transient things come and go the truth will always remain unselfish acts help the heart to grow low self-esteem seeks fame Conditioning began when we were young trained to chase a fleeting dream realization of what I have become a cog in the archaic machine Eyes light up at shiny possessions the moth flies towards the flame people ruled by bodily sensations a free society with no rights to claim
