To Be Loved Is To Be Changed
May 19, 2024
To be loved is to be changed
Dirt covered dolls who got too bold
The force of time is strange
Books yellow and pages aged
With stories read and epics told
To be loved is to be changed
A dusty, empty stage
Audience seats no longer sold
The force of time is strange
We used to dance as if deranged
Till we wore off our meager soles
To be loved is to be changed
Our hair color lost its range
And our skin now wrinkled and old
The force of time is strange
A grand performer, now offstage
And I, alone, write you this ode...
The force of time is strange
For to be loved is to be changed
