what early recovery feels like
At least for me. I mean really, I feel like Im going through the motions...
" When will my life begin?"
Mandy Moore, Disneys Tangled
Seven A.M., the usual morning line-up
Start on the chores, and sweep 'til the floor's are clean
Polish and wax, do laundry and mop and shine up
Sweep again
And by then It's, like, seven fifteen
And so I'll read a book Or maybe 2 or 3
Ill add a few new paintings To my gallery
I'll play guitar and knit and cook
And basically
Just wonder, when will my life begin?
Then, after lunch, it's puzzles, and darts, and baking...
Paper-mache, a bit of ballet, and chess....
Pottery and ventriloquy, candle-making...
Then I'll stretch
Maybe sketch
Take a climb
Sew a dress
And I'll re-read the books
If I have time to spare
I'll paint the wall some more
I'm sure there's room somewhere
And then I'll brush, and brush And brush, and brush my hair
Stuck in the same place I've always been
And I'll keep wondrin'
And wonderin'
And wonderin'
And wonderin'
When will my life begin?
on days like today, even though I am "working on me" I feel like she does. Im trying to be productive, but I feel stuck still...
