The Me I Used To Be

by The Dark Poet   Jan 9, 2009


I look into the mirror
i know what i see is me
but is it the me of now?
or the me i used to be
i see myself alone
and yet I'm with my friends
my heart begins to groan
for i foresee the end
death is guaranteed
life i know is not
so in the past i tried to be
what the world required
and thats just what they got
i saw myself a loser a boy without a future
i never thought i be anything more than a murderer
but as i look deeper within that life telling mirror
i see myself at home
lying on my bed
my wife is right beside me
on my chest she lays her head
i begin to wonder if this life is meant for me
but as i think further
I'm brought back to reality
the visions Ive just seen
make me Begin to ponder
how to achieve such bliss
and cast my evil ways asunder
i cast away that burden
as my mind begins to plea
i now know i never the same
but i can be whoever i want to be
so ill never again be the me i was
but will become the me I'm destined to be
