the setting is a playground
the sun is a'setting
two children teeter on a seesaw
one goes up
one comes down
when we were kids
we called it a teeter-totter
one comes down
one goes up
it seemed more balanced back then
she saw, he saw
seesaw
i'm still on a teeter-totter of some sort
i think that maybe we all are
only now i go higher than most
and coming down still gives me butterflies
but now those butterflies, they have big scary teeth
and it's not nearly as fun
and there's no one to occupy the other side
most of the time
