The Weight of Empty Hands

What does it take to stay alive?

Love and family for a happy life.

Small things matter most,

Don’t go by social media posts.

People work hard for mere existence,

Everyone looks happy, from a distance.

You wish for a fulfilling life but, remember dear,

Someone is always less fortunate than you are.

Real wealth is not the bank balance but peace,

Do not save hatred but good memories.

Don’t run after money or land,

We all leave with an empty hand.
