The New Me

change isn't always good

By Chris SantiagoPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

I used to laugh

I used to smile

That's in the past

It's been a while

Eyes where once bright

So fierce and full of fight

Now they're empty no light

All replaced by lonely fright

When did it happen

When did I change

I can not remember

I feel so strange

Even to myself

Look in the mirror

Is that really my face

Who's dark eyes stare back

What is this place

My heart would race

If I had one to take pace

Odd how everythings so slow

like some background character

In a show I don't even know
