The Good New Days

I remember the good old days

Silent, invisible, alone.

No one to laugh with me

To cry with me

To be immature with me

I walked with my shadow

My mind was on other things;

I wonder what I'm having for lunch...

 

But those are the old sad days

These are the good new days

I have people to laugh with me

To cry with me

To be immature with me

I walk with others shadows now

And I'm thinking about other things;

I wonder what we're going to do tomorrow...

 

I have ground to step on

Shoulders to lean on

And voices to build on.

Most succinct, you followed one thread of thought all the way through the poem, excellent! My only suggestion is that you single space the stanzas, as that would only add to its cogency. I loved it.
