“Changes”

By: Lourenzo Manimtim

Each day passes I am aware that this moment will never last. To wake and see with my own eyes a world of my past. Where the past is the present and today is tomorrow. But as every morning shines I fear opening my eyes as I know that the sun won’t rise in the same place it once was. I wish yet I know that time will never stop to relieve and linger what has gone passed, to live the life of my memories of the times I was truly happy, to see the blooming flowers and the wide green fields of grass, to experience the warm windy breezes, and behold to the sight of the majestic mountains. I fear to see the world change, I fear to witness the mountains crumbling and flames, the flowers in wither, and the field of grass turning into houses. I am free to dream and linger! I want time to stay still and, each day, as I wake when I open my eyes the clock will strike back. For the past will be the present and today will be tomorrow I can live in this joy of eternity I will relieve my memories a world where I see I’m happy. I wish! I wish yet I knew that time would never stop, and I must accept reality and face the Inevitable Change.
