The Words Don’t Return
Every year that we live
We breathe we see &
Experience so many things
That are good, bad or tragic
Beautiful, sad or maybe completely
Life changing for better or worse
We make friends
Lose friends
Learn a little more
About ourselves
Find ourselves
Either rich or poor
Another year older
Maybe you bought
A house or lost it
Maybe you just
Brought your first
Child into this
Sometimes unpredictable
And frightening world
That has magic and violence
Love, hope and chaos
But no matter
What has happened
To you in this last year
Good or bad
Write it down
Because
Those experiences
And those words
And those moments
Will never return
Happy New Year
Make it your own
