We alternate between feeling complete, elated in love with another
yet utterly empty when they go, and filled with heartbreak
Once embraced by the loving arms of the other,
alas left to carry the weight of our own pain and heartache
Where we used to sit side-by-side, we’re now standing alone
As the world spins, we each take our turns doing this dance
swaying to and fro, back and forth with the unknown
Knowing that to love means accepting our fate in taking this chance
