We buy and buy, more and more,

Thinking it will fill our empty core,

We hoard possessions, material wealth,

Ignoring the true value of health,

Materialism, what an absurd spell.

About the Creator

R.Freya

Poetry is my soul's language, and I wield words like a paintbrush. From heartbreak to hope, I capture emotions and spin them into verse.
