Quick Fixes
A good life is boring,
and filled with monotony,
Human nature will not allow
us to dwell quietly,
We look for excitement
and contentment in vices
that are bad for us,
Seeking quick fixes to our
lives that may seem dull
and uninteresting,
When, serenity can be a
blessing from the craziness
of the world,
However, we continue
delve into relationships
that are toxic,
Partying till we make ourselves sick
and exhausted from life,
Then we realize there aren't any quick fixes
for what ails us within,
It is better to lead a life that is
reflective and meaningful
as opposed to a mere existence
trying to be the life of the party,
dying to be cool.....
