NaPoWriMo Day 19 - Motives

Motives

I say I want  for you to decide,
choose what will make you happy,
never allow others to sway you
but deep down I know, understand,
selfishness abounds in my mind.
I want you to be happy, what's best,
I want what's best to be what I want,
though I know that's not how it works.
I could say my way would be more fun,
less stress, I wouldn't be lying, sounding
noble, though my intent neither selfless
nor selfish, at least not entirely, lying
somewhere in between, going nowhere.
