Don't wear yourself out, save the tiniest bit of spark
One sleep and a thousand nightmares,
Looking through the balcony,
It seems they are already unfolding,
Empty bottles of
drinks on zinc roofs,
Most of them are plastics,
consumed by people
who walk down the streets,

It's only the emptiest and
laziest of men that always put out
and depend on motivational quotes on social media

If a lady knows she is beautiful,
does she really need to be told?
If a man cannot afford her,
why try to lie to him?
Why tell him he can do it if he believes?

Some things cannot be done,
no matter how the body desires it,
Trying, sometimes would wear you out,

So don't try.
