Whatever it maybe

Has givin me something great

In one hand

And something so wrong

In the other

Why does life work this way?

Giving you something that feels right

Then to take it away

Before it can take flight

So when it is all said and done

You are left with nothing

Both your hands are left empty

Like the hole in your chest

That was once your heart
