All Roads Lead To Change
New experiences,
like an uncomfortable piece of clothing,
are hard to fit into.
They bind and pull,
slip and slide.
One may tug really hard
to fit into this change of clothing.
You slide into place,
becoming at one with the fabric,
or it bulges and splits wide open.
It can be mended or tailored to fit.
Different,
yet just right!
