change

seconds die,
seconds rise.
clock ticks on and on
multiplies a change.
consciousness takes up something,
leaves something too,
and what sticks slowly withers away.
what moves, what flows
takes a new shape
in every metre.
who you were
is not
who you are,
and who you will be
is not those two either.
love blooms and fades.
gods come and go.
stars are born and turn into black holes.
every moment is a change.
only thing that doesn’t change is change itself.

As I read this piece... the idea you want to convey is no matter what change is all around you... and the existence of it... what we do with it is progression... or we can sit idle and do nothing...
