Worth


Fame.

Fortune.

They both become one.

Skin so perfect and teeth like the sun.

But what happens on the other side?

Living on food stamps just scraping by.

Hatred.

War.

Wrong god believing.

Peace.

Love.

A point worth seeing.

Fight for something like is all that you've got,

Fight for something before your worth.

Gets.

 Shot.
