Jekyl and Hyde

I first met Jekyl
so sweet and funny
made me laugh and smile
you made life sunny

You helped me out
you gave me life
you made things better
took away my strife

But then things changed
a potion you drank
you became Hyde
no one else to thank

You turned into him
the one from before
the one I'd escaped
I couldn't take more

The man I loved
he'd disappeared
gone forever
as I'd always feared

No more laughs
only had tears
what happened to Jekyl
after so many years?

You split in two
only loved the first
didn't know Hyde
he was all your worst
