Dewdrops drip from butterfly wings An unseen cricket in the undergrowth sings Mosquito bites fresh still throb and sting Time is only thing that changed Tell me about the earlier days Frostbite, thunderstorms, and summer rays These are all the things you say Time is the only thing that changed Your smile is still childish Tongue still loves licorice Ever bewildered by the ridiculous Time is the only thing that changed Your skin is speckled with liver spots Hands tied with arthritic knots Old memories, your brain forgot But time is the only thing that changed Because you will be and always will Be the one I love, be the one I still Cherish in my heart, admire until Time stops You may think you've changed But it's clear to see Even after an eternity That you're still the same to me
