If I changed over time
And you loved the old me
Now estranged in clime
When did you stop loving what I be?

Now estranged in clime
When did you stop loving what I be?

forgive me my friend
reading your acute wording of a struggle
I relate with, easily
I couldn't help inking a l little poetic reply
(a gradual, graduation
is never deemed admirable
by a society driven, by a mindset of
'what have you done for me lately'
yet, still
some of us, take a while
to recalibrate our way of being
trying to insure, those we appreciate
stay by our side
yet, by the time we arrive
life's moved on
stranded, we begin to question
did we change for no reason?
for ourselves?
or was this how it was always supposed to be?
us changing, gradually
while things around us
fast-forward, relentlessly
do we continue to chase
or relent and accept
try as we might, we may never be cut out
for those regular highways of life
so maybe
we need to seek, alternative routes
allowing us time to admire life's scenic highlights)
Thank you L.B. you hit the nail on the head. Love is a word we take too lightly in English, like the frase "I'm sorry" over used and misused. They are things that should be said only with great deliberation. Love to me is the unconditional love felt mostly by mothers, or for those who are lucky enough to encounter a soul mate. Mostly is is used for "I love you for what you can give me today" Thank you dear friend for your comments.
