Excuses

always not knowing the answers,
resorting to a logical reasoning complex.
borrowed excuses,
with no easy solutions.
lies with hidden meanings,
trying to attempt an unwanted detour.
always looking for an easy way out,
tempted to reach out.
drowning with reasons;
not always looking forward to the lessons,
fear of the ongoing slaughter of rejections.
