The verb “piacere” (to like) in Italian has an unusual construction, in the sense that the subject of the action is reversed.
The meaning of “piacere” is best thought of as “to please, to be pleasing to” rather than ‘to like’.
In English you ‘like’ something or doing something. In Italian it’s the object or activity that ‘pleases’ you.
To construct this grammatically, we need to use indirect pronouns. For example:
Mi piace la pizza (‘I like pizza’, but literally: ‘Pizza pleases me.’)

Piacere in the past takes to be.
