Pandora's Box

Greed: In all things merciful the want and thirst for more and more never hesitating to build such lust for power devour those who stand in the way of expensive ivy towers, enchanted by diamonds money is the perfect alliance to be master of this world. Vanity: To be above all else with pride firmly at top shelf conceited and gorgeous to know your worth it time stands still in the presence of greatness the undisputed the selfish to be catered to because simply put I'm better than you through and through. Slander: Disdain when you dirty such a good name so cold and malice to discredit the very balance a scandal and shame with just a simple slip of the tongue hysteria has begun, utter nonsense and lies an evil deed done well I'll see you in hell. Lying: Is it so wrong to intentionally sale falsehood such a good imposture does it well to create strife and accuse the innocent with one deceiving statement a counterfeit and proud of it, fallacious yet deliberate surprisingly with no regret. Envy: For years I've watched you bath in success and glory with each advantage a different story gain after gain time and time again as my resentment sets in. To begrudge all that you have it should be me it's plain to see I'm in total anguish I long to be in your shoes what It must feel to have it all oh but one day how the mighty will fall. Pining: My longing grows daily as my nostalgic desire reaches higher than any mans worst fire, torment are the days that past with out you vulgar times like these are indeed none to pleasing how I need your love to rise above yet I waste away and wait for the moment I can be with you because I love you. Hope: A satisfactory time it will be when all things awful are washed away so change can stay in constant spirit to see the end of dismay the fulfillment of such a day and time would blow the most hardened minds. Expectations are high you can see it in every ones eyes confidence with in victory such good fortune for the world to see.
