Change

Change

They told me

Change
is
good

that sometimes you have to
see new things meet new
people learn new subjects in
order to come back around

They told me

Do
not
fear

that sometimes you have to
lose old things let go of old
memories forget the past in
order to come back around

They told me

Change
is like
jazz

that each chord shapes the
melody and each emotion shapes
the line and each breath fills the
sound and each line creates an arc

And I told myself

to keep on soloing.
