Change is in the air
Unfamiliar faces
Fear sinks in
And whispers quietly

"You cannot do this"
"You shall not succeed"
Nothing is the way it was
You want it all back

Change is frightening
And overwhelming
But it shall not be feared
It can bring amazing things

Things never imagined
The world's unseen

Find solace in solitude,
There is no shame in that.
We are unknown to ourselves
An ocean to which we delve.
Scarcely coming up for air,
Entangled in fathoms
Whirlpools of despair.
Waves of introspection
Spare us shallow reefs
Yet cast us into darkness
And the horrors of the deep.
