Analysis of A New Day

Justine Martindale 1986 (Virginia)



I go out of my mind most of the time
I've turned to frost
I feel lost
Nothing makes sense anymore
Life has become a bore
A dark cloud covers my heart
The world around me falls apart
Waiting for a miracle
Past memories turned to dust
The willing the care now flushed
Hoping for a new day after the sun starts to fade.
