The elusive nature of Motivation
Ever hiding in the shadows
My dear, you wear so many masks
Hiding here, there and everywhere
Sometimes you steal away,
Yet I can sense you watching
Smiling at my vain efforts
My brain unable to grasp the words
To speak with grace and eloquence
Motivation, oh motivation. Where art thou.
High and low do I search for you
Upon the mountaintop
Down in the valley low
Still your face eludes my eyes
Visit me quite soon, my friend
My soul yearns for divine inspiration
