CHANGE WAS THE ENEMY

Change was the enemy.
It tore us apart,
pulling our hands apart
under the guise of time.
The world swirled;
jobs,
longer hair,
and you were no longer the person I knew.
And you didn't know me anymore.

We came face to face,
and I was looking at
the skeleton of what I once knew;
a thin sheet of dried cloth
pulled over a person
that you used to be.
