Richest Man

the empire of coins built high,
stacked each atop with a lie,
balanced too heavy could fall,
keeping it all hidden behind a wall,
his suit made of golden weave,
hardest of words he never believed,
looking to his child so innocently thought,
to love and respect never taught,
and to leave his empire in her hands,
if it continues and never ending expands,
she speaks a word that makes him guess,
looking up to him in a flower covered dress,
he answers and lies to her for the first time,
as she knows immediately his lied crime,
then saying something else that shocks too,
giving doubts to his words from her view,
breaking their bond and leaning away,
to never join again with nothing to say.
