I Used to Be (2010 POETRY CONTEST)

(PARODY, SATIRE & TRIBUTE)

 

I used to be upset

I used to be sad

But now I just feel dried up and sad

 

I used to be depressed

Once I almost died

And one time I used to always cry.

 

But now I'm kind of happy

And I'm even married.

Though it's to my cousin, our kids a bit too hairy.

 

I even stopped my drinking

But I keep on writing

Sanity and creation rage on in my mind fighting.

 

So please do not be sad

And don't turn into me

'Cus I'd rather die from mystery then tears that drowned me in their sea.
