JUST ASKING

i thought i had you as company for misery
but just the same, thanks, i had that slightest moment
Now, like an eagle you are going to soar the heights of a faraway mountain
Far from me
Your dreams fulfilled but for how long will the excitement last?
sometimes i wonder how the gods placed the minds of men and women
I've seen those who prayed with their prayers granted
Due to persistence and yet at the end regretted what they've got

Have the gods granted what people wish and pray as a form of
punishment too?
