Desires

Acceptance, family, honor, independence
It is what we desire that has a significance
Many of us run towards idealistic dreams
Without realising it could get extreme
But the people who go for achievable wishes and desires
These successful ones are the people who really inspires
Resilience and effort aren't much to ask for
But the greedy ones will always ask for more and more
Every desire will come with an obstacle
In this case, the clever ones will become unstoppable
The stingy ones, however, will be blinded by their greed
If only they could open their eyes and read
Inspirational actions live on; beyond time and place
People with feasible desires in life will always ace
Because they're not the ones lost in time or history
And their desires and actions become immortal
