A Change In You

What is death

but a change in you

and everything

you thought you knew.

Everything old,

everything new,

everything bright,

everything blue.

A change in appearance,

a change in disguise,

a caterpillar with rainbow wings,

a cracked egg flies.

Don’t be sad for the changed,

for those who have said goodbye,

but feel your grief all the same

and know what it is to die.
