who was that girl 24 December 2005
who was that girl
who thrived on the energy
of a crowded shopping mall
who was that girl
who bought gifts
never worrying about
whether they were good enough
who was that girl
who opened her presents
and never gave a thought
to whether she deserved them
who was that girl
who decorated everything in sight
with joy in her heart
who was that girl
who revelled in the cooler weather
putting on sweaters and jackets
and laughing
who was that girl
who sang carols
who sang in Christmas productions
who sang happily
where did she go
to be replaced by this woman
whose eyes are never dry
during this season
where did she go
to become this woman
whose neck and head aches
with the tension in her heart and mind and body and soul
where did she go
that she turned into
me
