Humanity Lost

You’re lacking humanity
What does that mean?
Your soul is empty
Your thoughts unclean

Feelings for others
Will never come first
Greed is your hunger
Anger your thirst

And when you die
Old and alone
Remember these thoughts
It’s all you will own

For all eternity
There you shall lie
No one mourning
No one to cry

Writhing in hell
Is where you shall end
And many will smile
Good riddence, amen
