Change

by Chad Picard   May 1, 2007


In each heart
lies life and death
joy, pain, and sorrow
and everything else

What we show, what we feel
determines who we are
yet change can come a-sudden
an unforeseen forking of life's path

Never think you're set in stone
(save if you've been petrified)
any choice can be counterbalanced
if you need to be rectified

Darkness can be lightened
as light cloaked in shadow
a lover's kiss can turn to poison
or a foe's hate turn to love
nothing is beyond change.
