WRITER'S HAVEN

HE CHANGED FOR ME

He changed for me

From this day on let it be

A different person will emerge

For different people to diverge

Shadows that haunt him was buried yesterday

So he doesn’t have to fear any of today

Unusual things will be obvious

Soon his old self will be oblivious

And then one day you’ll have to miss him

And find the old self in him

But he won’t be there where you expect him to be

Because he is new and have been set free

Bear in mind that he changed for me

And solely for the benefit of me

However, he also needs to give you credit

Coz’ his change seems to be legit

For those who let go of him while he is at his best

I thank you for you gave him rest

But there is just one line that I have to say

“Regrets and repentance is at the end of the day”

- Yesterday I was talking about being hurt and coping up with the burden that you feel inside. This poem right here would be its sequel for that part at least (those who successfully eluded its grasp). My perspective about this is --- the main reason why a person changes overtime in terms of personality, character, and attitude whether consciously or not  is because that person realized that he has to value and love himself more (not to the point of being narcissistic) but just learning how not to be the underdog. After all in most cases, you'll shift to something new because there is a triggering factor for you to do so. Speaking of change, the phrase "version 2.0" is so common and is widely used to determine or send the signal that you've already changed and is living a life different from the one that you have before. However, being in this state for me has its downturns as well because you might get cocky or overconfident of your change that you tend to go overboard with it #real talk! So you just have to go to the basics of balancing everything. Just stay on the positive side of your change, get the most out of it, and be happy. COGRATULATIONS!!! enjoy :)))  

P.S If the reason for your change is a person, go thank that individual now for helping you find the better you.
