Don’t sacrifice your long term freedom
for temporary comfort
The ladder of opportunities
are often missed because
of our interim desires;
It’s too late when we realize
what we actually burnt in the fire.
Addiction to temporary pleasures
at the cost of your resources
begins as a campfire and engulfs you
even before you feel
the warmth of it and realize that it’s actually a wildfire.
You’re not a moth. Beware!
I’m burning my way back,
I may not know what the future holds,
my actions may seem too bold,
But this time I won’t crack,
I’m making sure
there’s no turning back
In a bid to eradicate
a temporary pain,
Don’t dig the roads
that leads to your freedom,
And a lifelong gain.
A smart man builds a fire
to keep warm today;
a wise man braves the cold
to taste freedom tomorrow.
I threw away
my only way out
for temporary relief
I threw away
my only way out
for temporary relief
Look beyond the desires
that confine you,
often your chance at escape
is right before your eyes.
Your comfort zone
will kill your dreams.
