Philargyrist

Her eyes sparkled as
the man took out the handful of currency
She gave her nicer smile
He winked back not knowing that
his nightmare
had just begun

A speed through time
with a marriage filled with wealth
She greed even more
The man gave in and thought it is fine
Her eyes sparkled again
as she loves his money
more than the man
himself

The mansion was then invaded by
shoes, bags and clothes
The man was angered and plan a plot
She have no idea and
greediness took over her
and eventually led her
to self-destruction of
bankruptcy


Not everything in this world can be brought using money, I truly believe that…
