The Metamorphosis of Life

Towns develop and cities grow, Towers stand high and street lights glow. But amidst the noises and flickering light, there are changes that take place through the night. Stars change form and galaxies move apart, From a heavenly life on earth to another heaven, some people depart. The changes in life subdue even the smartest of the smart, each human has a turmoil churning the blood in their heart. Animals are no exception to this case, many changes in life, they too face. One breaks it’s shell and soars to the sky, while the other roams about on lower ground, unable to fly. One human breaks another, relationships are torn. The other curses life, regretting that he was born. But while people grief and while people remorse, destinies will many a time, change their course. The one who always lost might find his chance. For the one who was lonely - a new romance. For the one who worked hard, he will receive the fruit of his labours, for the one with no friends, the company of new neighbours. There is nothing we can do about it – life is too complex. No matter the situation, it never fails to leave us perplexed. For no one can live a stable life here, your luck could turn around, even when knowing that your end is near. But life changes and so do we, some of us may be caged while some roam free. To understand life is not an easy task to do- it has always confused me, and will also confuse you. Death won’t stop the changes that take place, so don’t make mistakes whose consequences you won’t be able to face. After all, we survive in a world full of strife, you must understand, that no one can stop the metamorphosis of life.
