Leaving us far behind

Laziness creeps in like a gentle breeze,

Whispering softly, "Take it easy, please."

Tempting us to stay in bed all day,

With just one thought: "I'll work later, okay?"

But then the hours slip away so fast,

Leaving us with nothing done at last.

Regret sets in, and we realize,

Laziness was just a disguise.

For procrastination's hold is strong,

Dragging us down, where we don't belong.

It steals our drive, and dulls our mind,

Leaving us far behind.

So rise and shine, and chase your dreams,

For time waits for no one, it seems.

With hard work and determination, you'll find,

Success is just a matter of time.
