Marc Pallanes Poet I do not know?

I Used To Write Such Nice Things Back Then

I used to write such nice things back then

I wrote about little brown eyed girls
I wrote about little red heads curls
I wrote about things that made me smile not cry
I wrote about life, and not about wanting to die

I wrote songs about my friends and sometimes my foe
I used to write such nice things back then, where did back then go     
I wrote songs about the mountains, U know that's where the songs come from
Now I write about hate and death how I can't wait for it to come
      
I used to write such nice things way back then
Used to like to sing myself to sleep with my pen
Now I'm finding life to be just a bit too much at times
Now I'm finding all the hate in the world taking over my rhymes 

But I used to write such nice things back then, way back then
Hope maybe someday, I'll write really nice things again
And I can fill my heart and yours with love and joy once more
For Ive some wonderful songs and stories in store

                                 PALLANES
