Poetic Mondays: Focus In

We all have peripheral vision
constantly taunting us with wants
urging us to bypass all our needs
how glutton can we be?

Billboards telling you you're not good enough
magazines whispering insecurities in your ear
social media throwing you in comparison charts
how vain can we be?

Peer influence of excessive intoxication
overly rebellious actions forget about consequences
forget about the futures vision
how can we FOCUS IN?

Discipline of self is the hardest yet most efficient solution
controlling urges from steering you off your path of righteousness
You deserve the right to resist and refrain yourself
Your follow up was on POINT, who can stop your wealth?

At the end of the day, you are the eye of the operation
The beginning and ending of a beautiful creation
Your future is waiting on your patience
Will you take heed of the message...

...or lose focus right before you reach the finish line?
