Change
Change
Over time
Adapt to
What’s to come
Or else
You will
Go under
And suffer
The consequences
What’s that?
You see
A new thing
In the spot
Of an old
The old
Was replaced
With a
Brand new
One
What’s this?
You see
Something
That was
Not there
Before
That is now
With you
Forevermore
Who’s that?
You see
Someone
Who was
Not here
Before
A new
Face that
Greets you
And leaves
You startled
Where’s that?
A new place
You now
Have heard
Of because
Of your
New friend
You go
Together
And you
Realize
It has
Replaced
The old
Place
New things
Happen and
Life continues
On, even
If you may
Not be
Ready yet
Change and
Adapt to
The times
Otherwise,
You will
Be left
In the
Past
Thinking
Of only
The past,
Not the
Present or
Future
Stuck in
The past,
Not able
To go on
You might
Stop it here
Because
You can’t
Move on
And adapt
