We closed our door, and left them out,
This was our time, and moment for us,
Steeping forward, but cognizant of our past,
Home is a feeling, not a place,
I hold your hand, and you hold mine,
Less talk and more action,
Less thought, and more thinking,
Home is a feeling, not a place,
The time is nigh, and the moment right,
Settle in where we belong,
What are we waiting for,
Home is a feeling, not a place. Let’s make it a place too.
The manuscript Blue Lines is the fictional coming of age narrative of a young California woman Key Yemaya Walker, and her 2 year growing journey through school, love, and life period piece, written by Kenneth Suffern, Jr., taking place at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill between the years of 1997 – 1998. Loosely based on true events, and experiences during that time, told through the eyes and voice of the main female protagonist, a freshman first attending the school.
