I,Your Omnipotent Partner

It all started when you stepped into the world With closed fists. I followed you since then, Waiting for you to recognise your needs-nay , your greed. My empty belly wanted to satiate its hunger, And so I stepped into the comforts of your mind, Detemined to engulf you in arms of mine. Sorry, I forgot to tell you my name- With utmost care I have been tamed, I have synonyms- worldy desire , consumerism- I am, your beloved, materialism. I am there even when your shadow goes cocky that we will remain in conjunction, Unless the truth of your life brings us to the road of separation. I live in you, I live as you. I flourish in you, I breathe as you. I bring you pleasure, but later your doom. I stay with you, even if it disgraces you. Do not loathe me beloved, I am your friend. If you do, my accomplices envy and pride will drag you to my toe. Now, don't you cry my friend, 'cos materialism has no end.
