Cruel Envy

We want what others have

But forget what we possess

It seems simple to understand

Like having a common sense


Still we run after things

That we can't have in life

We get so mad, so obsessed

That we feel like losing a wife


Everyone can't have everything

Something has to be left

If we don't realize it soon enough

We will feel unbearable pain in the chest


Some people will always have more

Some will have less than they deserve

But that doesn't mean we should cry

Envying the perfect ones we observe


It is a common human feeling

It won't ever go away

We must learn to handle it

So that we can have a good day
