Of course now I’m different
For nothing stays the same
Not even you, my dear friend
But changes bring no shame
For are we not improved?
By sands of time, refined
Polished by the fires of fear
Like rubies, now we shine
Our daily tribulations
Dull aches of suffering
So sharpen our resilience
To face what tomorrow brings
And crises flung our way
Each battle that we waged
We’ve scaled canyons of grief
Surmounted with great courage
Look back not at yesterday
And wonder what may be
No more are you the same you
Nor I, the same old me
Focus instead of what’s ahead
The journey’s not yet done
But knowing that we’ll make it
That’s half the battle won
So embrace change, fear it not
It’s the only certainty we’ve got
