Consumed

September 1, 2008
By Anonymous

In a world consumed
With desire and wealth,
All will be doomed
To depression and death.

But in a mind obsessed
With an angel of sorts,
One will be blessed
When a friendship contorts.

So in a world deprived
Of gifts from above,
Two will arrive
At the gift of true love.
