If Need Be

If Need Be

A Poem by Stephanie K.
"

A poem about loving what you have.

"

Why would I want this, when I could have that

Of course I want it shiny who would ever choose matte


No I will not give, when there is an opportunity to take

And nobody dares to tell me I’m a conniving snake


It is crazy to think there are truly people like this,

But in many cases people only care for their own bliss


With all the sweet things we want, society’s grown sour

But, actually loving what we have is what will give us power


We keep exclaiming,

More, More, More

But all we are getting is,

Little, Little, Less
