Forest (Wattys2016)

Satisfied

Are you satisfied?

That is the question that separates you and I

Have you been searching for something your entire life

Is there a craving that keeps you awake at night

There is a lost look in your eyes

You are shaking with anticipation

Your goal is so close

That you can almost taste it

I've had that feeling

But unlike you, I've silence my demons

They no longer poison me with greed

And I no longer want to take everything that I see

Your problem is that you take

Your problem is your lack of shame

Trying to numb the pounding pain

That bothers you both night and day

So you continue to feed this "feeling"

Despite all the lives you destroy

Nothing, but a deceitful  figure 

Whose only intentions are to toy

The question arises again 

Sent out to millions of men

You may obtain many things throughout your life

But are you truly satisfied?
