Change in Me
A Poem by Esther Calder
It is late, and this constant compromisebetween thinking and breathing is exhausting me.I am a stranger to my own reflections.The earth rotates slowly through the skies,away from the sun, towards my dreamsI shiver and I realise that the dawn has not yet arrivedAs the death of someone I have lovedslowly sinks into my heart.All these memories go rushing past.I am lost, in this unfamiliar placewhere my dreams seem far too realand even the passing of time is coming apartBecause something has crossed over in me,and it's never coming back.It's hard to believe,but you're never coming back.

Sorry for your loss. I can feel your reflection in the poem. This is very well written. I like the title, because losing someone close to us, definitely changes us. Thanks for sharing.
