We love to speak, but not to hear
We love to lead, but hate the rear
We fear to die, but never live
We love to take, but not to give.
Ourselves we cherish, truth we let perish
We disdain tears, yet live in fears
We forsake truth for empty careers.
Inane values rule our desires
Burning us like wildfires.

Wonderful! I think you should post this in the open poetry forum, too.

Live in my world just once and you'll find yourself enraptured.
