Weights of Selfishness
Sullen almighty,
Done with this world,
Journeying towards the earth,
To start with himself.
Leaving the selfless service,
For the selfish men he knew,
Journeying towards praying,
For the same selfless service from others.
Sad for his deeds,
For which he wasted his golden times,
For man wasn't ever goin' to stop,
Stop from doing all those crimes.
But then he thought,
What if I join this barbarous multitude,
What would happen to them,
With nobody to do to them good?
What would happen to those prayers that I'm left to complete,
Cause they aren't gonna try, fulfill their prayers without me.
If I join,
this team of egoism,
Then what about this world,
Which will split with the widening schism.
So then the almighty decided,
To better live selflessly,
Than standing to stare upon,
the world that shatters,
Giving birth to a barren land,
Waiting for a coming disaster.
