Change the Same

Change is never the same But to change is always the same I've been down broken roads Crossed corriod seas Come to the end of my rope and turned around to make a knot to make sure it goes on But the thoughts in my head seem so confusing The direction my life is leaning me towards Is filled with so many questions A dream here and dream there and two kids to boot makes me believe life will always be the same All you need Is love is claimed but to give your kids a chance to live makes a foundation shake I've built no wealth no nest egg you see All I get is cracked eggs and jaded edges that cut me down I want my children to see I am not the failure the reflection sees But the way Utah continues to grow the faster my pockets fill with lent and unclaimed dream particulars Is change an answer or is the same the best resolution So unsure so fearful All I do is write letters to myself which I call poetic thoughts But there is no poetry in motion for me Only clouded thoughts and insufficient means Where is the solution in an endless sentence I write about my life.
