Change

Isn't it funny how things can change?
Just when you thought all was perfect, everything seems new? All askew?
Returning to all that you left behind not so long ago, to find that it isn't there any more?
When you thought life is better, it gets worse.
You thought you took a step forward and found yourselves a mile behind.

The good old melodies go stale.
Brand new friendships fail.
Home is not where you thought it was.
Making decisions only because.

Is it a price for what is past? Or what I await?
Or is it simply fate?

It's Change.

"If you knew that you would find a truth
That would bring a pain that can't be soothed
Would you change?

If you knew that you would be alone
Knowing right, being wrong,
Would you change?

How bad, how good, does it need to get?
How many losses? how much regret?
What chain reaction would cause an effect?
Makes you turn around
Makes you try to explain
Makes you forgive and forget,
Makes you change"
- Tracy Chapman, Change

change really IS the only constant thing in our lives, ofc it hurts the most when things you took for granted such as your relationships with people, change overnight.
but change is good...necessary, in fact. it may not seem so (heck, it DOESN't seem so at all) but in the long run, you'd be happy it happened. at least that's what i like to think...

Worry not, JS.

Only an (inspired) piece.


But sudden change is hard to bear. One can only hope that SOME things would change back.

@kyra,
No, we move on and we like to think of a happy past and hence we say, 'It was all for the best...'
