Greed Poems - Poems about Greed

I step out to face the night, shielded like a medieval knight; and count my victories boldly won, need not count far for that is one; drag my fingers roughly through my hair, and stumble on the bones of some lost hare; never to remember peace, but lose myself a bit a piece; life never...

The sting of betrayal, a wound deep inside, Friends turned to foes, nowhere left to hide. They steal my trust, a precious, fragile thing, Only their own gain, the bitter fruit they bring.
