TELL ME IT IS NOT OKAY

 

Is will never be okay 

I’ll tell you the truth even if it isn’t okay 

true words are heavy and weighty 

this is wisdom but I’m not a deity 

the world is dark and our hearts are whack 

every sinners seems on track 

their appetite is now insatiable 

their ways are love-able

the focused you feels lost 

you can’t have everything, it’s not a must

you feel your success is nothing but petit 

everyday you’re threatened until you let it 

nothing kills you more than expectations 

a signal for a proclaimed pronunciation 

here’s your accolade, you’ve made a significance

they will latch at your door to pay obeisance

the world is now rigged against prudence 

if your heart is pure, that’s an offense

for your defense, you need to live under the radar 

you are now the enemy, forget the latter 

a loan gladdens the heart when received

I laugh at you, you have been deceived

you will pay back with your sweat and blood 

till your lungs keeps screaming ‘oh! Lord’

tell me it is not okay even if it is 

we are all degenerates at ease 

appease your heart and soul at your own peril 

nothing is fun anymore, no need to merry 

  

a simple pat and smile are intentional 

a genuine heart to hug you is optional 

tell every soul you meet it is never okay 

 we all are on opium, life’s junky
