No longer me

I remember how it used to be

Back then all I did was daydream

Long sleepless hours, like days they seemed

But that side of me is no longer me



Back then I was in love with love

I let my imagination go wild

I d just think and ponder a while

But now I know what truly is love



I used to think it was about flirting

I used to think it was attraction

But it’s more than simple actions

With those thoughts, myself I was hurting



Now I’m aware, I’m conscious

I obey and do as I’m told

It’s not that I changed, I got old

And also I acquired a conscience



Love is not something to be taken lightly

It is a feeling underestimated

It is now a casual thing created

I guess it has been changed, slightly



Love isn’t just a hug or a kiss

Love is about connecting with another

Sharing feeling with each other

Love is being able to grow like this

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Here I go, hopeless romantic again. I'm just comparing my opinions about love to now that I'm a bit older.
