The Seduction of Wealth

Oh, Money, you captivating siren, Your allure is both enchanting and dire. With your promises of power and gain, You ignite desires, ignite a burning flame.

I've seen the hunger in their eyes, Obsession grows, hearts paralyzed. They chase you relentlessly, day and night, Trading their souls for a glimpse of your light.

You weave a web of dreams and deceit, Leaving hearts shattered, lives incomplete. Families torn apart by your relentless grasp, As relationships crumble, love becomes a gasp.

In pursuit of your riches, we lose our way, Forgetting the beauty of each passing day. We trade our time, our peace of mind, For pieces of paper, our souls confined.

Yet, I've seen the sadness behind your mask, The pain and sorrow in your endless task. You're just a tool, a means to an end, But we've allowed you to become our friend.

Oh, Money, you're a double-edged sword, You bring comfort, but also discord. You build towering castles and walls so high, Yet leave hearts empty, souls asking why.

Let us remember, amidst this chase, That life's true treasures cannot be replaced. Love, joy, and laughter are priceless gold, More valuable than any wealth ever sold.

Though you tempt us with your dazzling charms, We must resist your call, protect our hearts from harm. Find balance in our pursuit of success, Embrace compassion, let kindness impress.

For in the end, it's not the money we possess, But the memories we create, the love we express. Let's cherish each moment, hold each other tight, And find solace in the richness of life's true delight.

Oh, Money, release your hold, set us free, Let us live with purpose and serenity. May we find abundance beyond your grasp, And discover true wealth that forever lasts.
