Change



Don't you know? Some things were meant to be precious.
Like those fallen leaves that you find aesthetic.
Like those broken branches and wilted trees.
If you had remained the same, you might have never looked back at those things
society changed you.
The you who now pretends to like everything just to feel up to date with the trends
this personality of yours can never make anyone happy.
I just want to know the person who first realised this ethereal beauty,
wouldn't that person have the true jewelled eyes?
How i wish I wasn't the you i am right now,yet i am glad you are acknowledging your sins.
To my wretched selfish being.

About this poem

Sometimes all i want to do is to change myself, my being and just me as a person because at times i am the one at fault and only bringing a little change in myself and just being myself i can be better.
