Shrugs at our shoulders
tugs at our hearts
compromises we made
trying to fit a facade
Decisions are hard to make
to bite or not to taste
to wait or just give in
the bitter sweet truth be told
I pace and race in riverie
my ego and superego in rivalry
a tug of war-a balance not yet struck
i feel like i am stuck
Lessons from long ago
gifts are meant to be preserved
till its ripe to be upheld in full
the beauty and quality still assured
It is a societal epidemic
a fad but yet devastating
paths are tread with cher regrets
hopes that lines are pleasantly drawn.
