Emotional Paradox..
The one with family calls it a weight, The one alone dreams of it late. Kids feel like duties, heavy and long, No kids? “I’m free!”—they sing their song. Who has nothing runs day and night, Who has it all is lost in a fight. The greedy for cash won’t lift a hand, The rich hold gold but don’t understand. Some say right is hard, not the way to go, Others pick easy, let the true path go. All chase one goal, one clear direction, But a ping, a post—sudden deflection. Hard work once built a brighter tomorrow, Now “fill the belly” is all they borrow. They smile today, no worry in sight, Tomorrow’s meal? Out of mind, out of light.
