Nothing Will Ever Stay the Same

By Sophie Hochwald

Nothing will ever stay the same 

The world is always changing, anew 

Your time passed, your time came 

I promise your time will come again 

And I swear that life will not stop for you 

Nothing will ever stay the same 

Yes, you may wish that things would not change But that would be a wish wasted, it is true 

Your time passed, your time came 

Another perfect moment has came 

Savor the feeling and take in the view 

Nothing will ever stay the same 

Sing in the shower, dance in the rain 

Don’t let the fluctuating world make you blue 

Your time passed, your time came 

And in the darkest moments when you feel nothing but pain, Remember that things will always change 

Your time passed, your time came 

Nothing will ever stay the same

What motivated you to write this piece?

My motivation to compose this poem came from the changes and dynamism that life brings to all of us every day.

How do you resonate with your piece? Why is it personal to you?

This piece is personal to me because of the changes that ensued when I moved from New York to Florida. At first, the change was scary, and I didn’t want to accept it, but over time I adapted to my new life.
