Life Can't Change


Don’t you wish you could just change?
Disappear and start over…
I know everyone finds one moment in their life that they want to change.
Life is Life…
You are still you…
You can’t change that…
No matter how much you want to…
You can’t hide the real you in a uniform…
Dying your hair won’t change who you are…
Changing your name won’t who you are…
We all want to start over…
Be someone new…
We can’t…
We are who we are…
No matter what that won’t change…
We will never hide the past…
Try… Yes… But does it really go away?
No matter what happens in life…
We can’t change the future…
We are us; nothing will ever change that…
No matter what we can’t change…
