Why is it what came so easy
Is now so hard to find?
I thought I knew of happiness,
Now I'm blind.
Emptiness that hits the heart
Like the blow of ball to bat,
Now expressed in tears that fall
Upon where you had sat.
Ambition; we were such great friends
Once upon a time,
Now it seems all I can do
Is rhyme.
I do not like what I've become,
I wish for something more.
But all I see
Is what I saw before.
