Some Things Never Change

Remember when you used to hide?
Each time the sky broke apart,
When the walls would shake,
In fear of the thunder,
Bending underneath it's screams,

When your eyes hurt,
And your sight was blurred,
From staring into the rain,
Watching the lighting rule the sky,
Scared but safe, part of the storm,

Back then, when you'd sneak away,
Just to see the sun set,
And to watch it rise again,
So tiny, back then, you were wiser than today,
Today you hide from the very life itself,

You used to love waking up,
Facing challenges,
You were just as silent,
But you weren't shy,
It seems you've lost your shine,

Your backbone, your wisdom,
It's a shame to be honest,
All you do is existing,
Without being alive,

Some things, they never change,
But when the thunder cracks,
You still watch the sun set,
Just to see it rise.
