The Cycle

Are we brain washed by society?

Advertisements, the media..causing a depressing reality

A reality where people are possessed with green eyes

Living life through a social media filter, selling lies
Created celebrations making us penniless

Nagging children left envious

Over worked parents..trying to keep up with the Jones

Double shifts, overtime..all for what? Who knows

What a child wants, over what a child needs..is it so hard to say no
Christmas, mothers, fathers and valentines day

Trapped in the cycle..Pressurised by what others say

Who wants to disappoint a loved one… Noone
But A day will come..

..a day will come when we will not succumb

Succumb to the cheap advertising tricks

Black Fridays, cyber Mondays
Drawn into spending without any plans to spend..what a clever trick.
