I say hello to a new year, One that I kicked off in glorious fashion, Not even at home, Not with you, At a friend's house getting drunk Off my *** and Forgetting about you by way of 5 mixed drinks 2 shots of crown, and some *** 6 oz of champagne 1 lonely beer to kick it off If not only for a few hours and I only remember half the night, Though it was sobering to hear That another one of my acquaintances Left this Earth. I wondered how I'd feel if I'd ever lose you that way Or how you'd feel if You ever lost me that way But quickly realized I don't really have you to start out with And You pushed me away I'm not something you "have" anymore. I remember how many days I cried As if you were dead So cheers to this 2014 year The year I lost four people Is now past. Three innocently brought Into the gates of heaven... If you believe that sort of thing. A fourth lost in some interpersonal battles Living in a world without me Beginning a new year
