Changes
There's no such thing as perfection,
It's merely an illusion we all look for...
in relationships…in life…in love.
We seek the perfect partner
…the perfect mate.
But what may be perfect today
…may not be at a later date.
Everyday we change and grow.
Life, environments, experiences…change us
So often it gets unaccounted for and gets forgotten
Your loved one begins comparing you
…not to another, no, but to you.
To how you used to be.
It's too late.
You can't go back - can never compete
with that you from your past.
They must love you enough to accept who you are
now, today, in the present.
Otherwise, it fizzles -
succumbs to the end that everything eventually reaches.
Tragic, yes, but real.
Change can't be prevented…
it must be embraced.
