Lost and Found

I LOST my freedom, for sure.
I LOST my figure, kind of.
I LOST time, where is it?
I LOST health, please HELP me!
I LOST patience, we all do.
I LOST time, I said that!!

I FOUND beauty, in every moment.
I FOUND two girls to love!
I FOUND more love than ever.
I FOUND a purpose, thank GOD!
I FOUND laughter over small stuff.
I FOUND tears and fears, anew.
