Excuses!

Real life

By samantha tanPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

A deadly last resort that never works.

A waste of perfectly good air.

A mark of shame that should not be seen.

A sad tale that in not sad enough.

A laugh that is not real.

A tragedy that never happened.

A life not lived.

An adventure told wrong.

A total loss of perspective.

A very confused idea.

A lost child in a crowd.

A real obsession over something false.

A rare thing that is now ordinary.

A completely out of tune melody.

A broken record on repeat .

A skipping tape, tripping over every other word.

A sorry excuse for anything.
