ode to change

I always knew...
knew that everything changes...
that nothing ever remains the same...
that time is on its side only...
and yet I dreamed...
dreamed that one day...
everything would fall in place...
that there will be smiles...
moments of tenderness and love...
but how do you explain distance?
how do you explain disparaging lives?
when do you stop?
what makes you stop?
was it even a stop?
when do you start reflecting?
On your own self?
those decisions?
the resulting outcomes...
for life is an ode too...
for this rain will patter...
it patters for you...
but tomorrow it would be someone else's...
and yet here i am...
sitting and wondering...
what makes it click?
I still believe...
that tomorrow is alive...
that tomorrow is waiting...
that tomorrow is looking...
to take over my today...
for tomorrow i will dance...
for tomorrow it will rain...
for tomorrow i shall feast...
for tomorrow i shall shout...
for tomorrow...
it all starts again.
it always does!
