a new year
Svanna Jan 2018
A year as past
I should be delighted
I should feel peaceful
that a new year has begun
and a chance to restart
and to tell yourself that
“This year is my year”

But I feel stuck
like nothing happened at all
like i am still where i was

no romance
no dates
no boyfriend
no fate

I know life is more than romance
More than finding the one

Nevertheless i feel alone
I see couples everywhere
Happy, in love and content

i am happy, not in love
and yet i am not fulfilled

Furthermore i wonder what it feels like
having that speciel someone
having romance

Falling asleep and waking up
with a loved one next to you
Intertwining fingers
Kisses on the forehead
Arms wrapped around the waist

All the things i have never had

Once it was close
so close that my heart tumbled
I thought for a while that this was it
This was what i had been waiting for

I was wrong oh how i was wrong

So now i’m left with an aching heart
who longs for more

snow
Svanna Jan 2018
when it’s cold and freezing
its not easy believing
that something so simple and pure
could leave you amazed by this form of nature
frozen raindrops on the ground
forming a layer of white and soft

snow

like crystals it glows and
lights up the ground

kids are playing
and it’s obvious they’re having
the greatest time of all

who would have thought
someting so cold
could bright up the world

— The End —
