the girl i used to be

when did the artist in me
become a scientist?

when did the starry-eyed dreamer
become this stranger with the cold logical mind?

what happened to the flower child in me?
did she die when i cut off her hair?

when did the idealist
become a cynic?

when did she realize that life wasn't beautiful?

what made her change?

when did i stop believing in magic and faeries and god?

i used to make-believe for hours...

when did i stop writing?

when did playing the piano stop being a pleasure
and become just another chore
one more task to be accomplished?

where did the passion go?

what happened to the girl who laughed and meant it?

i miss the girl i used to be
where did she go?
