never again

like the phases of water
solid ice cold
i thought i would be everlasting

nothing lasts forever you said
everything breaks down eventually
melting from its solid form

i ve changed enough
i ve lost myself in the process
watered down from my true form

you said not to worry
you ve reached a natural state
the most common form

heeding your words i ignored my intuition
i embraced the change and
allowed the flow

the days passed and i forgot about these thoughts
the air got warmer
the snow had melted
the rain had gone
and i had vaporized
little by little until
i became unrecognizable
