Changes
I watched you change into what you've become.
I see where you are, where you're going, and where you came from.
Your transformation was beautiful, like a butterfly coming out of the cocoon.
But now you're changing back, I spoke too soon.
I know how hard and rough the past was for you.
But you struggled and pushed on and came through.
You lived up to everyone's expectation.
Now it seems like you're out of motivation.
It's like you gave up or don't care anymore.
Excuses, are the only thing you look for.
I want to find that other person in you now.
Show them that things can get better some how.
I wish I could show you how you've come undone.
But you don't care, you won't listen to anyone.
Life was once great, you had it all.
But you gave up on life for some reason and let it fall.
As I stare into your eyes, I can see the fear.
As I stare into your eyes, I can't stand seeing my reflection in the mirror.
