nothing stays stationary forever

Nothing stays

the same 

Everything can change

in a blink of an

eye 

 

I am a witness

 

No one likes

to confront the

inevitability of change 

So we say things like:

"Yo, you acting real different." 

 

I thought that

with time

things and 

people 

are supposed

to change

 

Sometimes change 

is not beautiful

It is disastrous,

harming you and other

spectators of your

metamorphosis 

 

You think that 

you are a beautiful 

butterfly, 

but in the end

you became a dusty

motherfucking moth

invading people 

lives and putting 

holes in what were 

special to them 

 

before you inevitably 

change 

make

sure

it

helps

and 

not 

harms

 

Fuck your change
