Change Poem by Jim Meyerholtz

To Change

To Change the changed
is to remain the same.

To hear words unsaid
when living becomes dead.

Words changed when sent
to hurt when encouragement is meant.

The word is the same. The change in the ear
cause the pain.

A word to one is a Sentence to
Another.

To say breath is Smother to
Another.

' When you can'
Means 'Should have ran'.

To hear words filtered through life
what comes out may not be right.

We hear the sound
no meaning is found.

Its meaning we seek
its some sort of peak.

We see and hear words unclear
one see joy, one sees fear

The words remain the same
Yet to one joy to another pain.

One to live, one to die.
One to laugh, one to cry.
