Back and Forth

Back and forth, back and forth,
Between hearts of warmth and darkness.
Back and forth, back and forth,
Between times of bliss and hardness.

Back and forth, back and forth,
Will one side ever win?
Back and forth, back and forth,
When will one give in?

Back and forth, back and forth,
Will one stand and the other fall?
Back and forth, back and forth,
Or will the hearts join as one...

...and forget the stupid ball?

Footnote:

The last line may sound corny, but listen to the take-home message: Love is not a competition between two hearts; it is the challenge of working together and accepting each other's faults in order to make life happy between both of them. Life may be a game, but love is not.
