There was A Time.

There was a time I wrote poems

Or something like that 

There was a time I painted pictures 

Or something like that 

There was a time I felt things

I mean, really felt things

When I had big ambitions 

And limitless dreams

When I actually felt like I was alive

Or something like that 

Then like grains of sand it slipped away

Now I am very much dead

Or something like that
