Selfishness

All the hemogoblins in you body,
Wont be enough to teach you to love somebody.
If you are too caught up with yourself,
You will never see the worth of somebody else.

To be happy is to not be selfish.
To feel happy is to not be a pessimist.
I cant help a man who sleeps,
While everybody else plant their seeds
