Velleity

There is no one that has loved

Lived a life full of content

When lust replaces the intent

There are none that we call beloved!
There are dreams that wander

And some that probably come true

When desires present nothing new

Our wants grow unpleasantly yonder!
There are bonds that expect fidelity

Even though it is a truth unreal

There are pain pangs never heal

And vows become mere velleity!
There are those that never learn

Despite the façade that does unravel

The best of best get hit by gravel

Yet for better reason we always yearn!
