I was what I am not today <br />The long day of my life stretches on: <br />Soon the dusk will fall and then <br />The night will also be gone; <br />I wonder about the change wrought <br />Or rather brought about by the years <br />Was it perception and thought <br />That dimmed and stopped the tears <br /> <br />Is it my id <br />That did what it did <br />Or was it my cortex <br />That lost itself in a vortex? <br /> <br />Copyright: Rani Turton<br /><br />Rani Turton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-was-what-i-am-not-today/
