Poetry

 
Everything changes
A new chapter when you turn the pages
Another road a fresh new start
And yet still it breaks my heart
It makes leaving here very tough
But whatever I try will never be enough
For you to leave me here
So into this story I’ll disappear
I’m fading so fast
Leaving behind my life, and my past
Covered in a misty frost
Evens these cherished memories can never be lost
I won’t even begin to try
Because I can’t bear saying goodbye
As these days grow very few
Already I start missing all of you
I know there must be a reason for all of this
So into this coming storm I’ll persist
Not quite sure where I am going
But in the distance a light is growing
So for now I’ll take it in and force a smile
Pushing through every trial
Trusting that I’ll find a way
To come back even if I can’t stay
As years go by, everything changes
A chapter to revisit, as I’m turning back pages
