How it used to be: By Lily Winters. (That’s me!) this is for my English assignment where we have to write a poem or a short piece of writing over the Easter holidays about anything we want, but it has to have like a deep meaning. So, here’s my first draft!

How it used to be. 
By Lily Winters.

Life was so much easier back when we were kids. The world was filled with color, and we could imagine anything we wanted. Now i know that Christmas never hits the same when I have no trouble falling asleep the night before. I get sad on my birthday, I think about all the others I’ve had before this one. 

Ok that’s the first line I have more but I gtg lol

It's not terrible but maybe you should try to phrase it in a more poetic way, maybe with a metaphor or two.

Great start, Lily! Your writing captures the nostalgia and bittersweetness of growing up really well.
