He claimed he wanted many things
Night and day he worked and would rarely sleep
For money was his motivation
And rich is what he aspired to be
Forgoing birthday celebrations
And births of cousins and a new niece
Missing all of life’s wonders
For dollars was all he could see
Chasing coins here and there
While life just passed him by
Never celebrated his own successes
Because all he wanted to do was grind
He claimed he wanted many things
Spent years and years trying to become what he aspired to be
But now as he lays on his deathbed
He realizes that he forgot to be happy
“The greatest misfortune in life is that too many people aspire to be rich, than to be happy.” –Monica Renata
