Inevitable Change

CATEGORY

Views: 214

A place where I once felt comfortable

Has changed.

Or was it I that changed?

Seeing things in a different way

My eyes continually scan the room

And sort things in an order consistent

With the dialing of my mind’s

Combination to unlock and reset

My uneasiness returning me to

My usual self as my smile

Stages the perfect Oscar winning front.

Never let ‘em see you sweat,

Greet the world with a smile,

Do what you love and love what you do

Make your introductions

Conduct your business professionally,

Teach and learn as much as possible.

Should you become unsettled in a way

Where explanations aren’t necessary

And you see things have

Run their course,

Trust your gut and

Finish your assignment

You see, the heart and mind

Are vulnerable to trickery

But your gut doesn’t lie.

It’s a part of your growth.

Sighs of completion makes

A content smile

Leave a lasting impression

As you bow out gracefully.

Sometimes you may have to do

Like my momma used to say,

Don’t let the right hand know

What the left hand is doing.

These are wise words when

Appropriately applied

With appropriately

Being the operative word.

But when you feel that change inside

Don’t ignore it.

It’s a sign that it’s time for a change

And like I said a few lines back

It’s a part of your growth,

Embrace it.

Change is as inevitable as

The inevitable is change.

Planting roots is fine,

It’s where home is.

But your journey truly begins

When you branch out.
