Gold

I carefully step my feet into the unknown. My future is mysterious and I want most of it. I wish to desire and create. I push myself to want more and to achieve more.

Feeling like a failure I pass by my yesterday’s achievements and don’t even give a glance to all the trophies and recognition. It all was yesterday. It doesn’t fill my empty heart and I just let them dust over on the shelves of my memories.

With greedy eyes I pass mountains of gold that others possess. I read, absorb and practice skills of those with precious metal. I want more. And bigger. And newer.

Silver in my hands seems worthless.

Like a knight caries his heavy iron armor I carry my greed. Its weight won’t let me enjoy simplicity of life. I pass amazing mountains with waterfalls and beautiful landscapes but am unable to take any pleasure in them.
