The reason I dream…is life
The reason I love …is pain
The reason I walk…is need
The reason I stand …is me
The reason I read…is knowledge
The reason I feel…experience
The reason I pray…is gone
The reason I yell…is none
The reason I wait…is patience
The reason I fear…is time
The reason I write…is us
The reason I cry…is them
The reason I’m here…is there
The reason I lie…is good
The reason I’m lost…is me
The reason I’m me…is you.
