Procrastination
*PROCRASTINATION*
In a simple twinkle of an eye, the time murderer stalks again
As the seconds, minutes, hours, days and weeks continues to drain
Its wildness in consumption, we find hard to tame
Procrastination is its name
We freely allow it rule our minds for no particularly definite reason
With a regime that demands all potentials caged in prison
Just like a trapped bird longing to fly
Soon, the doleful restraint let the enthusiastic morale die.
Why can't this universal currency destroyer be executed?
When deep down, its personality is gravely persecuted
Why can't this destiny delayer be banished from our minds?
Without leaving any of its disastrous trace behind
I'm like, "I wanna do this" and then "oh I'm feeling kinda dizzy" maybe tomorrow
But throughout the whole month, tomorrow never shows up.
Sometimes, we purpose in our heart a leap into an enviable enthronement
But this delayer doesn't make it come to fulfilment
Our dreams will forever remain dreams
If we don't put to action our planned schemes
Fighting fervently against the time murderer
And equally putting all aspects of our lives in order.
Procrastination the thief of time has to be arrested.
The earlier, the better
