A new year has reached my messy doormat
fireworks have been lit up to reach the night sky
everyone I know in church was chanting “ happy new year!” to the people next to them as if they are their neighbors
golden confetti has been thrown from upstairs of the church
down to where me and my family are
some of the confetti got stuck on my hair but I don’t mind
after the service my parents talks about New Year’s resolutions
even though from my experience my parents are the first to fail them
when we got home instead of me staring at the ceiling(as usual)
I decided to open my window and look at the few stars
but overtime they began to lose their elegant sparkle tonight
fireworks were waking me up every time my eyelids tried to fail me
I couldn’t keep track of the time for quite a while
but I already knew I wasn’t going to sleep that easily
plus my new headphones made sure of that
with every song that hummed one ear to the other
everyone was sleeping even the dogs that howled at night
it was only then when the fireworks started to become quieter
and the sky has begun to look a little more bright
a new day has arrived
I began to admire the sun rays introducing themselves to the world
while I picked every golden confetti out of my hair
I summed up a conclusion
even though we all have different goals or visions or experiences
in the end we all see the same sunrise
