I don't know,
but I used to be different.

I used to care.
I used to have more to say.
I used to talk so openly.
I used to know you in and out.
I used to love the way you were.
I used to have this urge.
I used to understand where and why.
i used to speak clearly and explain what I meant.
I used to wish and dream all day long.
I used to live in another world.
I used to be normal, I think.
I used to get mad and sad and happy.
I used to be able to write it all down.
I used to wonder all the time.
I used to wish it never endend.

I guess I've changed,
But I don't know why.

Now I could care less.
Now I speak only a word or two.
Now I can't explain me.
Now I don't know who you've become.
Now I hate the fact I knew you.
Now I think that urge died.
Now I can't understand these whys and wheres.
Now I can't a word right from my heart.
Now I hate wishing and dreaming.
Now I live in the reality you created for me.
Now I feel one thing and one thing only, scared.
Now I can't write for you or me or my tears.
Now I wonder why I wondered.
Now I wish it could all be over with.

This is a good poem. Brought a tear to my eye, guess it's because I can relate. It's very sentamental. Good work.

very well done... i can relate .. as everyone else can... im guessing its a universally felt mid-life crisis (not really mid-life but something of the sort.. mid-teenage life maybe?)... you did a great job!

 Regret for things you did maybe tempered by time, regret for things you Didn't do, however, is inconsolable...

Jer and Star Fairy 2: Thanks for the comments.
That was definatly a "mid-teenage life crisis" as you call it. It's horrible!
