Poem: Change
How we want some people to change. They, seemingly can’t. But I believe they can.
Poem: CHANGE
People who never change
Finally, change
if they carry scorn
That is stuck like a thorn
that burning fire
of deep-rooted vengeance
will burn them
from both ends
unless they remove
the prickly thorn
and extinguish
the fire of scorn
they will be
extinguished themselves
and that is a change.People never change
Unless there is a deluge
an overwhelming act
a loss or catastrophe
or soaked in love
bit by bit slowly
Like how softly the water
caresses the rock
and shapes it into
a smooth pebblePeople do change
Beyond the seasons
and over the years
Much like time
the ultimate healer
Scars smoothen
memories fade
People can change
with a bit of time
and a lot of love.
