Lawrence S. Pertillar - Why Do I Keep My Head Up?

2014-11-10 1 Dailymotion

Why do I keep my head up? <br />And my eyes looking forward? <br />It is an incentive I use, <br />To keep moving my feet. <br />And not allow my knees, <br />To touch the ground. <br />With an exercising done to my legs. <br /> <br />There was a time, <br />When I just used my knees... <br />For the purposes of begging. <br />Now with my feet moving... <br />After learning I could walk on them, <br />It is remarkable the countless opportunities... <br />I never knew existed I have discovered. <br /> <br />'I do miss the 'old' you.' <br /> <br />I can understand that. <br />But I felt very uncomfortable on my knees. <br />And I knew there had to be something else to do, <br />Since I had done that a little too well. <br />I needed to be challenged on a regular basis. <br />And then one day it dawned on me to get up on my feet. <br />And feel them below me moving.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
