People change.

「Just kidding」- リク

I had to ask, "What do you mean? Of course people change."

Somewhere along that sentence, I grew quieter and quieter.

Because it's a fact. People change.

We're in a constant revolution, in constant motion, and people don't stop to think to see the change.
That's how people change.

Somewhere along there, though, I knew I was being too serious.

Because I can't joke. I'm serious.

I knew she didn't mean anything by it, but I still had to tell her. Like it was a fact she didn't know.
I thought I changed.

But on the false pretext that the wind could change me, could move me, I greedily grabbed at it with my heart.
Like the waves on the shore, I'm pulled in close, yet I'm the one who slips away.
I take back what I say, just as fast as I go back to it, and then past it, and then back again.

Constantly, I'm vying. Smoothing and taking and sucking it all in.
With no purpose or reason, I keep moving and keep doing mindless petty things.

No one sees the change in me.
