who I used to be

I think about you a lot lately

You'd be disappointed to know that I couldn't become who I dreamt of being

Life took too many unfortunate turns you see

If I tell you what they are, would you change it?

Maybe then I'd be more like you 

Firey like the sun

Bright and hopeful 

Fierce and naive 

I miss the potential you had, everything you could do, the little you had to survive

Back then the little things felt like the worse tragedies 

Only if you'd know what would become of our life in half a decades time 

Hold yourself, hold everyone you love close 

They're not around when you become me

I can't tell you who they are, that had to leave

I couldn't bear to see the disappointment you'd feel, if you knew their names

I wish I could be you, again

Even for a day,

I didn't know how I much I loved you then

But I know now, now that you're gone.
