Things Change

Lilly Mahon

Things change every day

even if we want them to stay the same

Everything around me changes

every second

of every day

 

The clock ticks as time goes by

The sky changes as the sun rises and sets

The weather doesn’t stay the same

My classes change too

Things change

 

Today will turn to tomorrow

That day to the next

Things change

 

I grow and change

My emotions even change

I’m asleep then I’m awake

Some things change gradually

others change quickly

But either way, things change

 

There’s life and there’s death

You can go from being best friends

to not talking at all

Things change

 

Jobs

Society

People

Everything changes

 

As things change

life goes on

Sometimes things change

and we don’t notice

at all
