Different / Same?

Change can happen in a moment
   and last a Lifetime.
We strive towards the new
  but grieve for the past
All encompassing, all maddening,
  yet we still secretly celebrate.
For change is Life anew.

We question the Beginning,
We applaud the Middle,
We deny the End.

Time stands still
like a watched ***.
Never moving in our eyes
but forever changing our view.

Should they  wonder?
Should you care if they do?
Would it change how you feel?
Would you go on?
It was part of the deal,
Whether  you knew it or not.

Your life is over
Nothing left but the
flowers popping up all
around.
Dirt cast over me
Sunshine no more

Used to come easily,
Now it taunts me while
    I'm awake.
It's all there bed, pillow,
     and darkness.
Yet it refuses to come.
Dreams Await
