A poem about being lucky for what you have

My Face Is A Thousand Faces

Look upon me with your eyes 
Tell me what you see my latest disguise

A face of anger gritted teeth 
trust broken being lied to
what lies beneath?

A face of sadness teary eyes
broken promises
Someone close demise

A face of happiness full of cheer
new promotion 
news been longing to hear 

A face of envy unable to touch  
materialistic ownership costing to much

A face of lust gazing with ease
undressing you slowly biting my lip
tempting you a definite tease

A face of abuse pungent with fear
being beaten for wrongdoing 
because you couldn’t hear

A face without senses 
a life without touch 
we complain about such meagre things
 when we are lucky to have so much

My face may be a thousand faces 
but there are people with so few

so I leave you with this message
 do unto others as you would have them do unto you
