No Regret

You can buy land and home

across this world made of stone,

gathering more into barns than the rest.

 

You can travel and see

every sight there may be

under Heaven from East to the West.

finding more ways to pay,

grabbing all you can possibly get.

 

But remember there’s something

worth far more than these…

to die without any...
