Jealousy
Jealousy
The root of all evil,
The game of all games.
What it does to people,
Is really quite a shame.
Be it jealously of money,
Or jealousy of fame.
The ending result,
Is usually the same.
It destroys families,
Destroys human kind.
Bacteria of the brain,
Destruction the mind.
It’s human nature to want,
It’s greed to want more.
Not controlling your desires,
Will have you rotting to the core.
Happiness is found,
With being content with your life.
Wanting what others have,
Can only cause you strife.
