Loving Money, Using People

Humans were made to love, but greed made us forget our purpose.

We were made to love and show we care,

But now it feels like love is rare.

Money was made to help us grow,

But now it rules the world we know.

...

We dream of riches, gold, and fame,

But without love, it’s not the same.

Kindness fades when greed takes hold,

And hearts grow empty, sad, and cold.

...

People are used like tools each day,

When they deserve love in every way.

We think success is what we own,

But true joy comes when love is shown.

...

We count our wealth, we build our pride,

Yet loneliness grows deep inside.

We forget to smile, to lend a hand,

To make life better, to understand.

...

Money is useful, that’s okay,

But it’s not what should guide our way.

Love is priceless, pure, and true,

It brings us joy in all we do.

...

So let’s remember why we’re here,

To love, to help, and to keep friends near.

Kind words and care can heal the pain,

And make us feel alive again.

...

Money will fade, it won’t last long,

But love will always keep us strong.

Let’s choose love and let it stay,

It’s the only path, the only way.
