Colleen Bono Poet Rhyme

Remembering When

I remember when
my life use to be fun,
now I just wish it was
over and done.

I remember when
I didn't have a care,
now that's all my time is 
filled with and not a minute to spare.

I remember when
I didn't have to worry,
and my life didn't consist
of having to be in a hurry.

I remember when I
could ask for advice,
but in this day and age
I stop and think twice.

I remember when
I didn't have to fight,
or worry about having to 
plead my case when 
I knew I was right.

I remember when
I wanted to be on my own,
but I don't remember when
I ever felt so alone.

                  Colleen Marie Bono
