I ponder the power of motives and thoughts
The way they can shape and affect what life brings
From the content of our dreams, to the daily grind
Motives and thoughts can make us feel sublime

We think, speak and ultimately act
Actions may be brave, or cowardly in fact
Motives will create our situation
Dictating how we experience elation

Thoughts are our own, no one can share
A formation process of infinite layers
These layers of thought vary in intensity
And this determines the degree of our intensity

The memories of our past, they unlock the gate
Sign language of virtue, power and fate
The stories recalled, of a world so unfair
Motives and thoughts that conjure despair

I think the power of thoughts and motives
Can overpower and stir emotions
There is no doubt that these traits
Can shape how we build our fate

They materialise our expectations
Lead us on to greater revelations
Desires that may be too intrusive
Motives and thought may be intrusive

Taking a treacherous route through our path
Leading us from the aftermath
The fear of an unknown future
It can yield so much suture

Motives and thoughts are near to power
Leading us along to create this hour
For it is within our minds and hearts
That we have the power to start.
