Changes

Tonight I made a scar
But it didn’t have your name.
Don’t know who we are
When all we do is change.

I wore a mask, I swear,
I tried to make it right.
I always give up easily,
But not this time without a fight.

Lit a candle this morning,
Watched the flame dance and sway.
Like hope recedes to ashes,
I saw it fade away.

But you’re still here
Breathing by my side.
I know this won’t change
But it’s still all right.
