You asked me
not to change
and believe me
I have tried hard
to keep your words

But in front of me
everything has changed
An ice-cold coffee turned into a smoky tea
Dead trees came out of the coffins
with wide smiles and colored costumes
as if they are going to marry
again
and those little children
who loved to dance
in the seashore
naked
are kept themselves
under cover

I looked at you
and your quiet smile told me
things will not remain the same
as summer passed
and winter came

But why I feel
something within you and me
will not change ?
But to discover
what is that

we have to walk on
the road of change
Change is the unchangeable law of nature and to survive, we have to adopt changes. But somethings within our self may or may not change...the way we smile, the way we talk, the way we behave, the way we feel
and those are the things that could define us
Let yourself go through changes and after that if you can find something within yourself, that has not changed...that is your definition
