Is it a figment of the imagination?
Is it the mind playing on realization?
Is it the fact that you are getting old?
Is this the reason you are suddenly cold?
Where is that person everyone knew?
Where is that person who was so true?
Where is that person who was filled with joy?
Where is that person who acted like a boy?
What happened to change all that?
What happened or what did not?
What happened to make you turn away,
What happened to all the joy that use to fill the day?
It came suddenly into the night,
It came suddenly without a fight,
It came suddenly and I did not see,
It came suddenly and took you away from me!
