Happy New Year


When the clock struck twelve
my heart skipped a beat,
I heard them celebrate
while I walked a lonely street,
Then I felt cold
and the air had gone still,
But I told myself
I shall never lose the will,
The drums beat aloud 
somewhere far away,
I wished the night to end
to make way for the day,
I dreamt of her then
as I closed my eyes,
I was at peace for a moment
and I felt my soul rise,
I then heard her voice,
It was telling me to walk,
It told me not to fear
the needles of the clock,
I then opened my eyes 
to be greeted by a sunrise,
I doubted if it was morning
or a nightmare in disguise,
But I heard her voice again
as it rang in my ear,
I smiled as she wished me
a Happy New Year

As..

As helpless as a feather

on a lonesome street  

Letting the breeze

find its way,

As carefree as a rain drop

rolling down a window

Without a clue

where it will go next,

As cold as a silence

inside a prison called life 

Just waiting

for the sentence to end
