Used To Be
I used to be a normal person who could do things and think
Now I can't find my way around the kitchen sink
I used to be in charge of four nurses and saw sixty patients daily
Now I cant concentrate long enough to spell my name hardly.
I used to be a wife to my own husband
Now I can't hardly even lend a hand
I used to be someone who cooked and cleaned
Now I can't do nothing but lean
I used to be someone who loved to sing
Now I can't even enjoy flight on a song's wing
I used to be able to get around
Now I can't even do that I have found
I used to spend time working on my site
But now I just cant seem to get it right
I used to also cross-stitch and knit
But now I just can't remember how to do it
The changes take place each and everyday
Leaving both of us not knowing what to say
It' been more than obvious for me to see
Leaving just a shell of what I used to be
