~ The New Year ~
I don't know how,
It fell off like sand.
This year was so quick,
Couldn't hold it in my hand.
I did breathe,
And I even did live.
All those 365 days,
Each 24 hours to give.
But somehow,
This time it wasn't enough.
Every day I smiled,
Yet every day was rough.
Right now it seems like,
How little was this year?
So many memories,
With the people who are dear.
I laughed, I cried and,
A year swam through my dicey life.
Where I thought it started yesterday,
Here it waved me a goodbye.
For me,
The year that passed by,
Has given me a lot.
But this giver also takes,
I blame it, but I'll say it not.
Good and bad,
Were just repeated dates.
Some were the continued highlights,
Some we marked and made.
Still thinking of what's past,
This year won't wait.
So just keep it aside,
And let the New Year seep through your gate.
