Switch
Today change moves as a shadow
Around and between my decisions
Then waits quietly on the next page.

An hour slides across the wall
A month blinks at my plans
Potential comes in like a rushing wind
Carrying an unexpected season,
While my heart, exhausted by empty wisdom
Watches as change closes doors
Throwing keys in the cold
River flowing with truth.
"Truth at all costs" the river echoes

At the last chapter hindsight visits
And speaks what it knew all along
