Changes
We thought
We should map out our future
Change
Redefines the boundaries
We tried
To script our careers
Change
Pushes us in new directions
We charted
Plans for our marriage
Change
Forces us off course
We resolved
To keep order in our lives
Change
Upsets our patternsWe hoped
For peace of mind
Change
Looms overhead
We have learned
Ignore the direction
Of change
Regret
The consequences
Resist the demands
Of change
Lament
Inflexibility
Disregard the power
Of change
Rue
Its presence
ChangeOur dictatorial
Family memberEver present
Ever relentless
