Life Treasures Come For Free

Chasing money won’t buy happiness 
wealth is not the cure for loneliness 
what do the greatest dreams entail 
I mean real dreams where all is well 
Money is emotionless 
chasing it is motionless 
you can buy whatever you can 
the feeling a flash in the pan 
only two things in life are priceless 
bonds with people and time you have 
you should always chase success 
a career, a love, don’t forget to laugh
and when your old with memories 
they won’t involve making pennies 
it won’t be the wealth they treasure 
as the free things in life are better
