Just a random stranger...

I had faith in you.

Like the first gold coin,

I purchased with my meager saved salary.

You had told me to

Melt the gold.

So that all would become yellow.

And you could soak yourself

In all that you thought was precious.


I hate being rude,

But your measurement

Of what is precious

Is cheap to me.


You polish your skin with diamonds

But are you happy chewing them?

Your teeth might break…

Don’t chew them.


Oh! Who am I to stop you?

Neither your friend nor foe,

Just a random stranger

Trying to understand your sadness

That will make you happy,

When you peak into your life

After I go.
