Contradictions

Why,through observation
opt 4 contradiction
make risky decisions
4 just a moment of satisfaction
leading 2 self-destruction.
change your life's perception,
build your own isolation.
Make u nurse your own hurt emotions,
due 2 misleading high expectations.

Make u demand 4 obvious explanation
of the world's imperfection.
Hinder u from discovering your highest potential,
due to your own dug depression.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
