Changes

Life wasn't getting any easier and so was she!!

The once big genuine smile was replaced by a wornout grin,

She was losing bits of her

And she was taking on a hard coat, 

So hard to penetrate, 

She hoped she would recognize the person she was becoming,

She could hardly recognize even her own self

She was alien in her own skin

She was changing 

Not sure whether it was for the better or for the worse.

The world had already given her a taste of it's ruthlessness,

Seeing her favorite comrades turn into strangers

People who had become part of her drifting apart

And their departure killed most parts of her!!

They changed her,

She was afraid of attachments,

How long will she lose herself to mistaken strangers?

Life was already bitter,

Nothing seemed going to plan,

Waking up everyday uncertain of the next hour,

Living in the moment is what she learnt,

For she had unknowingly lost treasures she thought were forever.

Changes,

One moment she's ecstatic,

Feeling the world is hers and everything is in place.

The next she's depressed,

Wondering when,

the storm will be over.

She barely knows herself.

She feels herself changing,

Unaware of the next metamorphosis,

Worried how at the end of the tunnel she would come out,

Hoping the light she articipated at the end wasn't fire

To burn her completely into ashes and turn her villain.

Despite all these changes, she remained a girl that smiled in the eye of a storm.
