Endless Envy

In the womb of my mother I wanted to be born doctor Delivered, I wanted to walk Then, came the need to talk Life is such an adventure That all of us like to feature Then, I wanted to go to school As I thought I was not that fool After school, the need of job arose Poor to good; better salary to dose I should have lived all I had meant Yet, better dreams I had dreamt Like having a beautiful woman Who could not let pass no man. Married, I wanted to have children Who could bring me joy and happiness I will not desire death but heavenly class. Desires remain unfinished until death Knocks at human’s door for eternal trip, To heaven where dreams fade and no flip Poem by Mugisho N Theophile
