Who I Was Before

I'm not
Who I was
Before

That person

Was swept away
With my old life

So when people act

Like nothing has changed
Either because
They don't know it has
Or because
They don't want to admit it has

It is confusing

Nice but

Kind of offensive

Like getting

A compliment
On something
You no longer
Own

A little painful

Disappointing people
With who I am

A little painful

All the love
For the me
I used to be

Not much

For the me
I am now
