Naivete

Posted: Nov 23, 2008 Sun 10:27 pm     Views: 365    Interacts: 7

In the clinking of coins
the whispers of love
are barely heard.

The glitter of gold
so aptly fades light
of the eyes, once endeared.

Sighting profits, little
losses of mere emotions
are never cared.

A naive still craves for
the love; devoured by
the giant beast of material.

Beautiful poem Aadil,
A naive still craves for
the love; devoured by
the giant beast of material.
