When I Was Young

I look back to when I was young,
wondering where I went wrong.

I used to be cheerful and happy, 
and now I'm barely stringing along.

Maybe this was a dream,
one I had to wake up from.

One that I wish wasn't over,
but I woke up, it just had to be done.

I used to be so sweet and special,
I used to be so unique.

While now I'm just the same as the others,
not a limited edition antique.

Maybe this was a good thing,
I was young and egotistical.

I just miss when I used to be joyful, 
when life was colorful and whimsical..
