Change

Fool that I am
Knowing better than to trust the heart
I did so anyway.

Regret and hope began their dance,
This day one year ago;
And all who love know how much change
A year can bring.

Priorities and jobs changed.
Living locations changed.
Even eating habits changed.

Fool that I am
Praying that change would finally
Land in my favor.

Hope rose and regret was silenced,
If but for a brief moment.
But all who love know how much change
A year can bring.
