Death. You and I can never be even.

Truth be told, I've played this card for far too long  
I've written this poem one too many times  
But each and every time I never seem to get it right  
So here I'm writing it one more time.  
 
Even if I took everything from you  
Like you took from me    
It'll never be enough,  
Death. You and I can never be even.  
 
You left a scar that never heals  
Cut so deep my soul forever bleeds.  
How could you have taken the one I need?.  
Is this your way, to take as you please?    
 
She was quite a beautiful soul, truth be told  
But you took her for reasons unknown.  
Took my missing puzzle piece, now I can never be whole.  
After that I went through the most, I fell into the darkest hole  
And I still can't see a ray of hope.  
 
Even if I burn your world down  
Even I killed everything you've ever loved  
Even if I destroyed the you, you are  
Even if I took everything from you  
Like you took from me    
It'll never be enough,  
Death. You and I can never be even.
