I once had a childhood; carefree, full of dreams.

I once had a family; happy, loving.

I once had my sight; to explore, to enjoy, to embrace the world around me.

I once ran alongside the wind; easy and flowing.

I once was a promising, successful athlete; full of potential, full of promise.

I once had dreams; I once had hope; I once had it all.

But now, it's gone.
