    Changes

     

    Who am I?

    It seems I've become

    a different person

    than I once was

     

    you think you will never change

    impossible...

    nothing stays the same

    like running from the wind

    It's all around

    seeping from the ouside in

    or maybe the inside out...

     

    looking into the mirror

    wanting to see me

    instead

    only a memory

    of what I used to be

     

    It seems we are changing

    every moment

    of our lives

    From the moment of conception

    til the day we say goodbye

     

    Our lives

    but a step

    towards finding

    our place

    becoming who we are meant to be

    finding myself”

    as we hear people say

    gazing into the mirror

    only to see

    a stranger looking back

    at me...

    This poem is nicely worded and represents feelings that I can relate to.Change is inevitable in life,but is not totally out of our control.Our personalities should not become a product of our environment,but rather our environment should become the result of an unwavering positive outlook and strong effort to achieve our best .

    Change is inevitable. Whether its for better or worse, who knows? We can only hang on for the ride & see where life takes us. Embrace who you are, yesterday, today, & tomorrow. Good poem. :)

    exactly!

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
