Inevitable Change

The moon is forever changing,

never staying the exact same-

for more than a day.

As if it changes its mind everyday.

I am like the moon.

Though, my phases last months.

I’ve come to realize that I’m like the seasons,

I change little by little, never drastically without reason.

I don’t think I’m the same star I was yesterday,

I’ve lost the spot in the sky I once took up.

Now you can only remember where the star-

May have been, unless a photo turns up.

It’s kind of funny, how slowly I change,

but how quickly it feels months later,

when noticing I’ll never be the same,

as I was eight months ago.

And now I’ve began to realize,

in the next two months I’ll change.

I will never be the same as I am today,

and that’s okay.
