Double-Sided

Our hearts are double-sided;

One side is inclined

To do the right thing-

To touch another’s heart

Or mend it if it’s broken.



But the other side

Wants to do evil.

It wants to see others in pain

And tends to break

Hearts in its own right.



For every heart broken,

There is a heartbreaker.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Inspired by: "If it is in our power to act nobly, it is also in our power to do evil."
