Ever-changing life

If it weren’t for work, I wouldn’t be here
from the beginning, there might be less tears
but sky’s got its plans - nothing is meaningless
so that’s why I still appear.

People come and go as sun and moon
the start’s still near, the end’s too soon
as bright it shines, as gorgeous in the sky
regretting the scars and forgetting the stars.

But the stars remain, for no attention
no expectations, no further requirements
though higher still, that’s simply how it is
they still shine for your darkest moments.

Though they might be gone soon, that can’t be known
yet isn’t it how life is?
People come and go by their own will
but sometimes God is the one who wills.

So please don’t grieve, nor waste the present
even if tomorrow fades again
today’s a gift to cherish, every moment
to shine towards the ever-changing ends.
