The Changing
They said that sometimes
I’m not acting myself.
They said that I look
like I’ve lost some weight.
They said that I’ve been
really spacey and distracted.
They said that I haven’t
taken care of myself
well.
How come I haven’t noticed
all the things they’ve said?
How come I feel that I’ve been
pretty reflective lately?
How come my thoughts
feel like my own again?
How come I haven’t noticed
the changes they say they see?
although,
Maybe I have
and pushed it aside,
Maybe I’m eating
less food than before,
Maybe I get stuck
inside my head a little,
Maybe I’m not paying
close attention to avoid it,
the changing.
