what you have might not always be there

Ever watched someone step on a butterfly’s wing


Or have someone take one of your things


Thought you saw the truth in someone’s eyes


Then you find out later it was all just a lie


Ever had someone change from friend to foe


As the world around you is stuck on “go”


You want to keep on dreaming a wonderful dream


To realize later it’s not what it seems


You wanted to run, but found you can’t hide


In a room where there’s no one there by your side


I ‘ve been where you ‘ve been . . .


I ‘ve seen what you ‘ve seen


So my word of advice—for your life please take care


What you have now might not always be there.
