Where Is She?

I lay down at the bed 
Thinking bout the times I had
The times when I was so full of myself
To the time I became an insecure nuisance,
People change, time changes
Well changes are part of life and who could deny
Wish I was my old self
A real smile being selfless
A body with no fears
A mind happier and clear 
Well that time passed away 
Now even before speaking I gotta think twice again
Where is that me who was fearless?
Guess she is lost in the hours of past selfless
Where is that me who used to hate knives?
That knife is now the best kind
Where is that me who couldn't care bout acne?
She is now diminished in the past's nightmare
She was the one who could overtake trauma 
Now she lost believe even in karma
Maybe one day she'll be back
Maybe one day she'll get over
Hope I could survive to see her again in the optimism shower 
Aj~
