The Key

A poem about change

As time comes and goes

People change and grow

We all move on and grow up

Sometime those the closest to us feel the farthest away

We wonder where time has gone

And wonder why we still come over

We celebrate the holiday then go our seprate ways

The key they’d given me still fit the lock,

but the house no longer felt like home
