More

If I was more
You would do your best
The screen would fade
The mouse would rest

If I was more
You would stand in line
Fearing the cost
Of wasted time

If I was more
Your gaze would lift
The eye would focus
Attention shift

If I was more
You would not wait
To make a home
To set a date

If I was more
I would know best
To fly away
And never rest
