Lust

  When man was still young,

still fresh from the dust.

In an hour of weakness,

man gave into lust.

The serpent had promised,

God's wisdom you see.

But God had told man,

"don't eat of that tree".

For on that day,

when man disobeyed.

Perfection was then broken,

sin was then made.

In the history of man,

and the origin of sin.

Lust is the place,

it all did begin.

Lust of the eye,

 a wanting of things.

Wanting whatever,

whatever it brings.

Lust of the flesh,

one of the most dangerous of sins.

For this is the place,

fornication begins.

Since the first day,

that man welcomed lust.

He's sought new ways,

to revile and disgust.

In the thousands of years,

from the day it did start.
 Mans still seeks new ways,

to harden his heart.



Spiritual Health?

Man has always sought,

extravagant things.

Hoping for fulfillment,

in the moments they bring.

Some live to obtain,

only material's, and wealth.

These are not concerned,

with their spiritual health.

The wants of man,

have always exceeded his needs.

The same is true,

for his words and his deeds.

Man is still full,

 of the lust of the eye.

But all our earthly toys stay here,

on the day that we die.

Have you laid up treasures,

where the thief doesn't roam?

Or are they simply the things,

that clutter your home?

Do we build gods in the wilderness,

made of our own gold?
While we worship our works,

and forsake our soul?
