THE NEW AND THE OLD



With every added year there are
new things to do.
New friends to make,
new places to go,
new heights to scale.
It’s all about the new…


What’s old is safe.
What’s new is true!
What’s new is exciting!
What’s old passé.


Familiarity breeds contempt, they say.
Ever wondered why?
Its coz how we are, I say!

We have started to live for change.
We have started to live by change.
Our minds are synced to change.
And we won’t have it any other way.


Change is good.
Change is progress.
Change cleanses.
Change heals.


Why call old gold then?

What’s precious is supposed to matter.
And nothing old matters anymore.
Old clothes, old cellphones, old jobs, old friends, old people…


Our past was our present someday.
And that day what’s now old mattered.
It doesn’t anymore…

Why doesn’t it anymore?
