People come. People go.
Everyone is bound to leave someday
It’s time we all embraced
The winds of change
Leaves change their colour
They fly away
The days get longer
The winds grow stronger
The winds of change
Babies are born, old people die
That is life.
Relationships, friendships form and finish
These are just the winds of change
You grow your hair
You buy new clothes
You change your taste in music
This is change. The winds of change
Birds migrate south
People move houses.
Countries too.
The winds of change keep blowing.
A man retires
Someone gains a job
Change comes
The winds of change.
Change for the better. Change for the worse.
It happens everyday
Some change you like, some change you don’t.
It happens anyway.
It’s time we embraced it
We changed along with it
We adapted to the new normal.
It’s time we all flew away.
With the winds of change.
So yeah. I also write poems to express myself. This one I wrote today. It’s mainly about how things have changed since I joined sixth form (People come, people go). My reaction to life (Babies are born, old people die) and the fact it’s autumn (Leaves change their colour, They fly away, The days get longer). There’s also themes I’ve discussed in previous blog posts, such as my new normal post, which I will provide a link to.
I can’t really say I’m a professional poet, because I am not. I did get a B in English, I was in set 1 for english at High School, I won a Green blue peter badge and the publishing of a poem because of something else I wrote, but I am not William Wordsworth. I just like to express myself, that’s all.
So here’s the blog post I told you about: http://ifyame.wordpress.com/2013/01/22/the-new-normal-a-concept/
