The Move

Note: this is for Real Poetic's challenge (acrostic with the word 'Anniversary'):

Extra Note: I am also writing this on the last day before I move out of a place I have lived in for about seven years. I am tired, stressed out, still looking for books and bags, and wondering what my place will be like...

So this is right off the cuff.

Am I really this far along?

Not really feeling it tonight;

Not really ready to give up a place like this;

I love the life I have led;

Very close to my neighbours, parks, routes,

Every conceivable form of distraction.

Really, I should have found something closer to this spot...

So, that is all I have to say

About the passage of time,

Regrets about this great jump into another place... And...

Yes, I have more to say...
