There Are Things

There are the things you lose,
And there are the things you give away.

You can lose your way
On a rough and unknown road.
You can lose the day
Letting the sands of time slip.
You can lose what you say
Getting caught between the lines.

You can give precious jewels away,
Never knowing what has real worth.
You can give the day away,
Wasting time on what is doomed.
You can give your words away,
Speaking only sweetened lies.

We were never meant to be,
We just happened.

He lost himself somewhere along the way.
I gave myself away every single day.

There are the things you lose,
And there are the things you give away.
