What Remains

People change, cherish stays

By Rohitha LankaPublished 9 months ago 1 min read

What Remains

In earlier times, I often pondered

About the transformations in others.

I felt a deep sadness

Regarding the differences I observed.

As time went on, I gained insights,

Understanding more about human nature and myself.

In this process, I discovered that

Nothing remains constant in this world,

Not even myself.

How others evolve

Is their affair,

As they are no longer the individuals

We once knew...

All we can do is accept what remains

And cherish the people who are still present.
