I feel that I know your face,
And I did,
I used to know you,
But now,
I don't.
People change,
It's true.
You've changed,
And I don't know what to do.
I can see it in your eyes,
You want to change,
To forget me,
But you can't.
You'll be the same shining star in my eyes,
I won't let you go.
And you won't change.

The author's comments:
My friends are changing all around me. Sometimes it's hard to remember who they used to be. I wrote this poem to help people remember to not let go of their past too quickly.
