X.XII.VII.How?

How does love turn to hate?

How can joy turn to pain?

Why can't things just stay the same?

It hurts too much to go through change.

Short, sweet, and right to the point. I love it for it hits home with me hard. Everyone always says change is good but in my life those instances have been few and far between though I still try to approach them with a positive outlook. Nicely done.

Turn, turn ... and the forces of change seem strong than ... stay, hurts ... and the forces of stability. The conflict between the two is in all of us to some degree and I suspect ebbs and flows depending on where we are in our trajectories. Change is often exciting and refreshing, yet many hate it. And there IS a lot to be said for a quiet life at least occasionally, right? Your poem captures the conflict succinctly.
