One or the Other
by
McKenna Byrne
There's always a kisser
Of one who is kissed;
One who is missing
The one who is missed.
There's always a giver
To one who is given;
Then there's the forgiver
Of one who's forgiven.
There's one who's deceiving
The one who's obtuse;
One who's perceiving
The other's a goose.
There's one who stays home
And gets tied up with strings,
While the other will roam
On the loose - and have flings.
There's one who's endearing
And one to endear;
One who is caring,
And one cavalier.
So who plays a game
And whose love is true?
It might be me...
Or...maybe it's you.
