Changing

“Silentum Florum” by Deckard Enright

Changing by Bruno Ferreira

My memories of you are golden,

They shine like diamonds in my mind.

These memories protected me.

The pictures I painted of you in my head are beautifully crafted

Time has passed, and now the person I shared those memories with changed.

Changed to someone who no longer matches that beautifully crafted picture in my head

Those memories I thought shone like diamonds are nothing more than coal to you.
