How I despise change.
I want things to stay
The same,
From one day to the next.
But the world
Constantly evolves
Leaving me to transform
Along with it.
What astonishes me most is that
I’m not even the same person
I was yesterday.
I feel like less of a person
As bits of me disappear,
Replaced by worse,
Less admirable qualities.
Maybe they reveal
Parts of me that I didn’t
Know existed.
