I used to chase the world so fast,
Joined every activity, made moments last.
Laughed so loud, no fear inside,
Always shining, full of light.
Now I sit, just watch, stay still,
No more chasing, lost the thrill.
I have no time, I always say,
But deep inside, I look away.
I wonder why, I wonder how,
What changed in me? What happened now?
Is this who I am meant to be?
Or is this someone else, not me?
I miss the fire, I miss the spark,
I miss the dreams I held at heart.
But time has passed, and now I see,
I’m just a shadow of old me.
Will I go back? Will I stand tall?
Or watch in silence, let it fall?
I close my eyes and ask my soul,
Who am I now? And am I whole?
