toastier.org ; What I used to be

I used to be many things.

A superhero, a spy, a scientist, an inventor, a director, an author, an artist, a dancer, an astronaut, a doctor.

I used to be alive.

I look in the mirror now, and all I see are tired eyes. I'm not unhappy, I tell myself. I'm okay enough. It's the same everyday, a life of monotony. I can feel the dreams slowly slip away as the glow in my eyes fade. I'm too young for this.

I used to be something.
