Instant Gratification
To be loved, wanted and needed, we are all the same,
to get instant gratifications, some will play their game.
When we want, what we want, and we want it now,
it weakens the soul, I’ll show you how.
Good thing’s come to them that wait,
as we learn how not to hesitate.
A heart that is filled with heart aches and pain,
makes instant gratification so easy to obtain.
It doesn’t last long, but you don’t have to wait,
as it fills your heart with regrets and hate.
Instant gratification, lies at the door,
as it leaves you empty and wanting more.
The things it will cause a person to do and be,
brings out the darkness for all to see.
Out in the open, the more webs are weaved,
with instant gratification, your being deceived.
always left empty, with only self to blame,
when we play instant gratifications, little game.
