This is not the same world
you were born into
This is the same world
you were born into
It is both things
You can see
the contradiction
You can feel it
It is no less true
Are you the same child
who learned to ride a bike
Has that person changed
What has changed
We move forward
adding and discarding
Those who loved us
when we arrived
will not be here
when we leave
Who will
Who will we see go
before us
Always adding
Always subtracting
Watching the seasons
steadfast in their
routines
