Tomorrow is a new day
These clouds will not keep your sun away

Lay your head down in peace this night
And all you fears,shall be gone by light

Be kind to all ,hold not a Grudge .put others first and never judge

You add the next verse my job is done ,I leave it to you
Now. while I wait on the sun
Thoughts on the new year
Charlotte Huston Jan 2018
The eyes of Times Square stared in wonder,
To a New World just yonder -
A World of Hope,
A World of Love,
A World of Faith;

Yet all I see;
Is despair - repetition
Like a song,
Forever on repeat ''
Happy New Year.

If I want to change
Then I will do so myself
Without any help

So it's a new year
And I'm expected to change
But I do not care

I am on my own
No other situation
Makes me dependent

There's too much to do
It feels that I cannot do
But I can and will

Everyone changes
By making their own choices
Not for the new year
It's a new year, everyone wants to change.

I woke up today like I do any other

trying to come out of a dream that confuses my reality when I first wake up
for a couple of seconds when I open my eyes
I can imagine your still here
I can drag my dream into the sunlight
and make believe that this whole thing was just a nightmare
Day 1
the fireworks made me
see the word 'alive'
they said people like me
couldn't feel things
but i did that very night
the page was flipped
we embark on time
maybe this year 'round
we'll do it right
but darling, did the fireworks
make you feel alive too?
make you feel hope
make you want to explode
make you want to be beautiful
make you want to stay
make you scream
make you smile
make you stare
and say 'hey, look at that,
i made it through again."
made a cheesy poem about new year ** wishing u all the beeeest <3
thoughts to dump Jan 2018
every new year's day
is made for you and me
to share each other's passion
to cherish every
moment of celebration
because to me you are more than
the cheers of a toast
i will fight for you
even if it's from coast to coast
your smiles, i will keep
your laughs, i want to hear
til i fall asleep
when you're lost and scared
i will find you, kiss your worries away
when you make mistakes
i will forgive you quickly
so you never have to say sorry
when you're sad and lonely
i will be your shoulder to cry on
throw you the warmest of hugs
on cold rainy seasons
i will never get tired
of listening to your stories
i will always be here
for you my dear
so here's to new beginnings!
a new year for us
to take new risks
to follow our hearts' desire
to fall in love with you
again and again
everyday
forever
come what may.

in between the ending
and this new beginning
lies an infinity of unknown
afraid maybe, but still
brave enough to take chances
say goodbye to all the “what ifs”
make a step, cast all doubts


my yearly mantra: no more resolutions, just start making actions..
Happy New Year everyone
Croiyon Jan 2018
As the new year comes
Maybe today I'll end the pain
Maybe today I'll fade away
Maybe today I won't wake up
Maybe today I won't be unhappy
Maybe today I'll allow my sun to set
Maybe today I'll become nothing
Maybe today I'll disappear
Like the stars in the dawn
This is a reflection on the things I did in 2017. It is not a poem, but rather a list of things that happened in my life.

- I gained, lost, gained, lost, and gained a friend
- I fell in love
- I was renewed by my faith
- My father got a detox
- I discovered my true self
- I had 15 anxiety attacks
- I witnessed terrible attacks on U.S. soil
- I almost committed suicide twice
- I lied to my best friend twice
- I bonded with my family
- I discovered HePo
- I learned to draw & animate
- I got kitties!
- I got 80% of my school on my side
- I completed semester 1 of Freshman year


But most importantly...
I lived another year
Goodbye, 2017...
AD Snail Jan 2018
Another year has left and gone,
Fear has now consumed my soul,
Unable to take back all the foregone.

They promised me my life wasn't a pawn,
But I don't think I can keep leading myself on.

I try not to worrying over all the issues and unknowns.

As the clock turns twelve, my heart skips a beat,
Fear is clenching it; trying to bring it into a waltz.
My thoughts screaming out to me,
'Don't allow it to sweep you away!'

As everyone is consumed with joy, making new years resolutions;
I am consumed by anxiety, paranoia sweeping me off my feet,
Singing to me all the things to panic about.

As everyone shall party, and stay awake,
I shall go to bed, trying to sleep and keep all the thoughts at bay.
