Captured Momentseat

Captured moments with loved ones to share,
create cherished memories we hold so dear,
family and friends those for whom we care,
we want to hang onto and keep ever so near.

In this world consumed with power and greed,
we struggle to stay focus in finding our way,
caught up in the rapture we forget what we need,
becoming lost in the crowd wanting more each day.

We fall prey to society?fs wants and heated desires,
playing the game of those who love and have not,
misguided souls become lost it the burning fires,
learning that material wealth doesn?ft give you a lot.

Left in a state of bewilderment, one starts fleeing,
realizing happiness is more than just an illusion,
survival is maintaining physical and mental being,
finding our way back from the world of confusion.

Peace of mind comes from our love and devotion,
family and friends are the key to our contentment,
eliminating materialistic need stop the commotion,
so live a simple life absent of worldly resentment.
