Things Change Poem by Fareez Phalez

When I spend my time with you
It always feels better
But why does it have to be
That it feels shorter?

When I spend my day with you
It always seems brighter
But at night when you aren't around
Why does it seem darker?

When I share my laugh with you
It's just good fun, I'm glad
But why when it becomes memory
I think of it and I feel sad?

When I say I stay forever
I meant as long as I can
Don't ask me questions I can't answer
Like why I've to leave and when

So when I say goodbye one day
Forgive me I'm leaving you here
For I've actually tried to explain
That nothing remains the same forever
