Motive

Why is love so hard

why does love change at all

why do we yearn 

why is silence a premium

why do we find ourselves tied

why oh why

when life is but a fleeting moment

all you stand for will turn to dust

years from now no one will know

no one will bother

why can't we be the way we want to be

desiring someone with all you have

missing someone will all you are worth

lovers all done and gone

lovers to be in waiting

it is not that my love is fickle

I just feel and want to live a bit more

to possess someone is fleeting

to catch that fleeting moment

and live a lifetime in it is the motive
