In other news, the first poem I ever posted is one I don't even like that much. So here's another. Maybe it's better. It's called "Discontent."
Is it wrong to want what’s unattainable
To waste time ruminating on the lost
To wish and want until you are unable
To realize the benefit and cost.
Humanity has a streak of discontent
For the grass that’s greener on the other side
And spiteful ignorance for time well spent
Fueled by our interminable pride
We should more often look to nature’s sight
The wisdom and perception of the years
That tell us clearly persistence turns to might
That courage emerges from our conquered fears
