They say change is good
But I cannot see how sometimes
Sometimes its just not right
Sometimes you have to stay
sometimes i cry
sometimes i pray
sometimes i keep on moving
this time i cannot
What holds me back is not physical but
harder to leave behind
Friendship, Love, Bond
and a lifestyle.
How do i overcome this pain of leaving?
How do I keep my self ok?
How am i supposed change the why ive lived before?
I only hope change will not change my love for a girl and bond with a friend
Without those things i cherish i do not belive i could survive in such a way.....


Note: This poem help me get some out, i am moving and i dont have a car yet and im 16 and my girlfriend and best friend live in my neihborhood and i have to change schools and change to another lifestyle....new friends new school.....its sort of painful...

Those times are really hard, leaving the known and people you care about for the unknown.  I wonder what God has in store for you. Perhaps there are grand dreams ahead and a fuller, more wonderful you in your future. These are perhaps empty words right now, but I hope you'll remember them, tuck them into your heart to bring them out when you have learned the unknown is a blessing.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Yes, it's like that sometimes. Change is the hardest thing for us to except without lot's of practice at it. Nice poem.

(big hugggssssss) I couldn't agree with you more, some change is good, especially when you are young and dream to be loved, but there is much change that is depressing to me especially that of the innocence lost compared to yesterday and the absence of chivalry! (sigh) This is powerfully touching, sweet friend, my advice to you is follow your heart and if someone tries to push you, rebel gently, as in don't be violent but just move on with hope! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
