greed and love

he. he was a simple man. he had money, sucess, a house, nice clothes and some may have said he was popular with the ladies. he loved to meet new people, read, talk. all of it. he was a social butterfly who loved the idea of love. with happiness in his heart he flew across the sky on his wings of love. 

she. she was a simple woman. she had a small job, not much money, a apartment, clothes and was loner. she hated people, judged them, snarled and laughed. although she loved children, and money. she loved a man with money. she was antisocial and mean, laying on the ground like a sqorpion, a black shell and poison sting.

one day the man met the woman and smiled at her. she scoffed at him. he simply asked her if she would like to spend time with him and she shrugged, replying with a sure. they started dating, and once she found his money she knew she couldnt let him go. but on his end, he had fallen deeply in love with this selfish, greedy woman. they started a unhealthy relationship which grew worse everyday until the first fight. 

the woman shouted that she only loved his money, and he was broken. he looked her in the eyes and said softly "i love you. i love you for your smile, your words, your everything.. and even if i had nothing i would be happy to have someone who i thought loved me..". she felt her heart drop with a realization that she had done wrong. she turned away from him and left. 

years later, the woman was in the same apartment. and the man was in the same house. they lived the same lives, until they met again. the same way, but this time they had a sense of dejavu. the man smiled at the woman and asked her if she would like to spend some time. with tears in her eyes, she nodded and said yes. but this time she offered to pay. using her money, instead of his. 

to this day. the man and woman live happily together. and i am glad to say that they have found a way, to mix.
