Temptation

Have it now or save for later
Hold on for a pleasure greater
Distract the mind and cool the brain
Focus on the on the long term gain

Many times each day we all
Are required to make this call
to guzzle what we can today
or take a moment to delay

And these decisions span such range
From what to eat to lifestyle change
From making sure we stay in line
To starting on a life of crime

But as I write I fear that I
Have missed the moment passing by
There goes another in the air
It's very tempting not to care
