Another year passes,
Partly chaotic, partly humdrum.
Yours truly takes on, with grace,
All that could ever come.
After what feels like ages,
Glasses did runneth over.
Nights lit up, like in dreams,
Days passed sturdy and sober.
But today , the wise one,
Shares another lesson.
Throw everything to the wind,
But preserve some caution.
Doesn’t take much time,
For things to go down really south;
When least expected, often,
Smiles turn into ashes in the mouth.
Is it true that people cast a curse,
On their own happiness, when they focus?
Even as we all secretly know it to be true,
It is convenient to label such thoughts as bogus.
But remember, shallow depths always pass by first,
Reaching the real stuff takes time.
And you would be held guilty,
If you mistake the froth for the wine.
In the interest of common good,
We must let hell be where it today is.
This is a pious day, let’s vow to not unleash,
The demons, that somewhere inside, exist.
To that noble thought- Cheers\m/
