My gift oh my gift

Everyone has a gift

Sometimes born

Other times acquired

My gift oh my gift


Like a double edged sword

Cuts from all sides

Friends and foes alike

My gift oh my gift

Like the pen of the writer

Man’s mind to represent

When light exposes the dark

My gift oh my gift


The first time it caused laughter

The second pain and grief

All from one, who made all

My gift, oh my gift


If it were gold, why am I poor?

If for my good, where gone my friends?

If my joy would always hag my pain…

My gift oh my gift


When I was neared, their envy

Made me now deserted, their hate

All because of my inheritance

My gift oh my gift


Oh my gift I cannot destroy

Oh how long can I contain

An inborn gift I cannot control

Until my earthly part destroyed
