Laziness

How beautifully disguised you have made yourself to be that one would not recognize you.
You have made many remain in the state of I'm trying while in the real sense their effort does not match/meet up whatever they have at heart.
You have made so many sit and plan so many vicious ways to destroy a fellow because the fellow keeps making headway without wanting to relent.
You have kept so many in the wheelchair of blame, because they became so lame to even worry about themselves.
You brought so many into the limelight of their shadow, lost in forever land, that even their feet when walking is so confused that one wants to go right and the other left instead of going the same direction.
You finally smacked many down that they don't even want to understand that you're their main problem.
Oh!Laziness, how well you are disguised.
You left so many people feel they're so busy, yes! Busy doing nothing but lazing around.
Laziness! You have crown so many king and queen in their fantasies that they refused to  return to reality. 
Laziness! Alas, you clothed yourself so well and begged the emotions of so many that they emptied themselves in you.

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.
