Motive

People have their motives.

Some purer than others.

Some befriend you and earn your trust.

Speaking smoothly with charmed words

Gain your trust and then slither in for their fill

Then desert you,

We all have motives,

Reasons, we do things a certain way,

Reasons we choose to behave from a specific perspective,

But what if our motives were always good?

Selfless? Giving and compassionate?

Let the fear of creating another mean person, drive us to be more compassionate to all.
