To give or take.
To love or hate.
To win or lose.
To live or die.
For like a math sum that a teacher write upon a board.
  These too are like numbers that add up to something within our lives.
For just as there is plus or minus.
  We give or take
Yet there is more to this sum of life.
For like to win or lose sometimes you can find yourself divided by a draw.
And yet just like plus and minus are opposites.
   So to are the fractions in our lives.
And yet they are all a part of the same sum.
One in which may be practiced more than the sum of numbers.
