Change Quote by Karina Escobar
“Why can't everything stay the same. Where there is no change. Where people don't die. Where you won't age. Where there isn't a past but only today. No more goodbyes on rainy days. No more crying and pain in your way. No more looking at pictures for your remains. Fearing the day that they might leave. I wanna go back in time and be there again. The truth is I'm scared to walk away. I'm scared to grow up and lose my life. Now is today, next year is tomorrow. I don't want to lay in flowers and sorrows. Will I be forgotten with others. Will I be remembered like others. What will happen to them and my friends. Will I be there when they pass away. Why can't everything stay the same...”
