You may have a million reasons to live 

too many for the bare hands to count

Such were desires of a heart of a simple human being

Desires in which keep them from dying


One may have a million, but I only have one

To love, that's my only reason to live

The only reason not to leave

The reason which kept me on living

Such thing kept me on breathing


Loving may have been my only purpose in this world

No matter how long i looked at it, it's the only thing I hold

It kept everything in me in its place

Like it all was held in a sturdy lace


One may have one, others have many

Others have plain, others are uncanny

Even purposes remains like such

Each of them matters much


Those reasons kept us on living, breathing, running

Kept us on wishing and desiring things

Such reasons also makes us who we are

Kept  our heart pounding til' our last hour


Whatever reason it is

As long as its for the good,

Then, that's already the best
