Poem: The Constant

I had a constant
In my life.
The equations changed,
So did the terms,
But the one thing that
Stood unchanged, unperturbed,
Was my friend - the constant.

I have a constant
In my life.
Seasons change, and
So do circumstances,
But the single thing that
Stands firm, finite,
Is my friend - the constant.

I always will have a constant
In my life.
The world will change, and
So will I.
But the only thing that
Will stay the same is my friend, the constant,
Whose name is loneliness.
