With expectations and high hopes
I am afraid to betray
And not pull my weight in “society’s” ropes
Can we keep up with these changes
without changing ourselves too much?
I fear that we are digging deep trenches
and that we are loosing our personal touch
Many people forget these things
In their fight to achieve the “perfect” life
They need material things to feel like kings
They forget what is really important to die and still have felt alive
So, Have I anything?
My answer is always fortunately yes
Because my values mean everything
My values are love, family and a life without stress
Nice effort - rhymes quite interestingly most of the time. Positive 'message' - is this meant as a song, rather than a poem?
ReplyDeleteA few language problems:
"Betray" - Danism - literal translation of 'svigte'; "craving" seems to have been used exclusively for the sake of the rhyme; "loosing", of course, should be "losing"
