Analysis of "Moving on"
Lenamarie Clark 1981 (Indianapolis,Indiana)
Where do I start...
So I'm beginning again yes and again I say...
Ya
well its life,my life I'm used to picking up the pieces and moving on.
but this time I'm procrastinating I'm too relaxed.
Five year is a long time..
I'm not to happy but I got to pick up the frown,
slowly I move boxes after boxes
in the room.
Stacked up to make room for more.
Too many memories in this home,
Lost that I am,I realized what I'm in for.
These walls are the last memories of mama and my son
i take this to heart, moving can be good but to some it's a process.
I tell my self to suck it up in life and i wipe those tears and conquer my fears.
This is the real world this is the struggle that many has never gone down so considered those are blessed and I'm the mess.
