Your poor heart

Your poor heart 

Even if you could have all the most expensive and best things in the world, you are still poor.

You are truly poor, living only to satisfy the desires of your body. 

You struggle to find happiness, yet you are never truly happy. 

You are indeed a poor person. 

You are poor because you fear losing what you have. 

You are poor because you use what you possess to see others as tools to fulfill your own desires. 

You are poor because you lack sincerity; your heart is always cold, with not even a sliver of warmth to heat it. 

No matter how hard you try to fill your cold, poor heart with material and physical satisfaction, it only grows poorer. 

In the end, your heart will beg for the sincerity of others and you will face death still poor.
