People do change, this is true
But it's how they change, that confuses you
Some change for the better, some for the worse
Their descision is a blessing, or it's a curse

Let me tell you a story, about two people i knew
They were the closest friends, with differences few
Attracted to another, they began to date
It lasted not long, it was not in thier fate

This was the starting point, each thier own change
They became distant, their friendship strange
the pain inside triggered something deep within their cores
Each thought they were weak, they wanted something more

The girl, guilty of her weakness, chose to stand on her own
Not wanting to burden another, her spirit had grown
Holding her head up high, she refused to be brought down
Surrounding herself with happiness, her strength was found

The boy, hatred of his weakness, chose to push others away
Not wanting to be criticized, his anger was his way
Standing against others, he refused negitive words to be spoken
Demanding his own happiness, his strength was awoken

These two people chose different ways to be strong
The changes effected each other, their friendship lasted not long
They were too different of people to remain friends
Some choices harmed the other, it had to come to an end

You see people do change, the fact is true
But how you choose to change, it is up to you
Matters not just the reason, but the way as well
Always remember these two people and thier tale.
