Nothing has changed

Aside from the passing suns or blooming flowers in the mud, nothing has changed.
Aside from the length of my painted fingernails or curled hair, nothing has changed.
Aside from the temperature of the mid-summer air or the color of the grey blue sky, nothing has changed.
I miss you just the same.
I still get sad.
I think about you everyday.
Nothing has changed.
Aside from the shorter days and longer nights, nothing has changed.
Aside from the headlights at red stop lights or faceless strangers passing by, nothing has changed.
Aside from the shifting constellations in the night sky or hum of the singing crickets, nothing has changed.
I am angry with you.
I still don't understand why.
I am angrier with my heart and with my head.
Nothing has changed.
Aside from the daily distractions or my riveting responsibilities, nothing has changed.
Aside from the rolling memories that play like reruns in my mind or the flashbacks I have, nothing has changed.
Aside from the countless tracks playing in the background as the soundtrack of my life, nothing has changed.
You are not the same.
You are still gone.
You still think I'm done.
Nothing has changed.
