Sparrows in brisk flight,
divide, avoid the tower
their reunion seamless!

Nature teaches every creature the laws of avoiding conflict

The waiting has blown
Exploding with fireworks
Showing new perks
Is it too early for revolution?

I talked too much about it
But haven't did anything

I flew from one hope to another
Deciding with greed
And new hope has came
Sparkling through every sight
Stumbling the lost hope over and over
Until it stuck and disappeared behind

Reality strikes all the happening event
Stunning every head until everyone realized
That they accomplished a big zero
From yesterday and long back then

So, plans happen
It happens every time but it keeps repeating
Cause all the heads doesn't give a s- about reality
We just keep pretending to be okay

Resolution

I will not re-invent myself
I have worked hard for who I am.
I am proud of what I have accomplished
And happy for where I have been.
I have goals that I will set,
But they have been set there all along.
I will strive to do the same as I have always done
And I know that I will continue to move on.

This world was made for me.
Made for me to accomplish and destroy.
To build it up from the ashes
That have collected over time.

My New Years resolution
Is not New to me at all,
It has been set in my eyes for decades
I have always been singing the same song.

This year will be so different,
But not for the changes I will make.
It will have changed with my curving path
That time will help to create.

My New Years Resolution
Has not guided me through my years.
My decisions have held me up to standards
They have ripped down my shallow fears.

This year will be so different,
But it’s because I have changed so much.
The little girl that once wrote on paper
Will no longer feel the rush.

I will not see this world as a ticking clock
Counting down my opportunities,
It will be filled with all my options
Open like a book in front of me.

Kicking The Bucket

It's not until you kick the bucket that you realize
the noose wasn't the solution to your bruise*
When none is present to grab your kicking feet
and lift you out the bottomless pit of defeat
there are no problems heavy enough to ****
and suicide ain't no solution, just a bad deal.
even your challenges weigh you down
remember there's always a new dawn.

Tomorrow Never Comes

I tell myself that this is it,
when the day is done.
When I wake I'll start anew,
but tomorrow never comes.

Tomorrow becomes today
more quickly than the last,
more quickly than the bottles empty
more weeks and months go past.

I buy the drink, the drink buys me
another day to run.
The demons waiting patiently
for when the day is done.

Tomorrow becomes today;
I waste it like before,
I waste it getting wasted,
but I'm wasting so much more

My friends, my health, my family
and those I cherish most;
watch the boy they used to love,
becoming just a ghost.

Tomorrow becomes today,
I may have missed it all,
I may have missed the last chance
just to never miss last call

I tell myself that this is it
when the day is done,
but the circle remains unbroken
and tomorrow never comes.

New Year View

This time of year, I often hear of new beginnings
A slate wiped clean, a "do over"
All mistakes forgiven and all debts pardoned
But no wrong is right without effort
Effort is futile without a plan
And a plan is not justified without practice
This time of the year I reflect on my preparation
This time of year I reflect on my presentation
This time of the year I don't wipe my slate clean
I look for the catalyst of the mess I've made
Because this isn't a new beginning
It's a continued effort, to one day, get it right

The New Year's Resolution

Wouldn’t it be good
if everyone could
do what they all should?

Written in 2016. The title had just come to me so I thought it would be OK to post it here now.

A "New" New Years Resolution

We celebrate annually a time of new.
Like time itself is a new concept.
Millions of people celebrating one moment
to hold the rest in our sweet memories
As if this one party could capture life's wrath
and life's breath in one glimpse.
Why celebrate now?
When every gasp of breath
is a feat in itself worthy of kings.
When time ticks every other precious moment
we mope around and wait till time ends
for us to spill out our gratitude for what was.
In the end of time, we list what we could fix about the past
when the past has gone into the void of the nothing.
I challenge you to a new resolution,
a revolution of tradition
worthy of breaking.
Embrace each hour
each minute and second
with the same exuberance
as the first, the middle, and last
like no other moment before.
With all the moments you breath;
as the sun rises and sets
and loved ones descend into the darkness.
Do not wait till next year.
Party like no other celebration ever to come,
for no celebration is inevitable.

2017

Go away the sour Kreepy memories,
I will definitely be crazy to relive you,
You're a bad experience - a good lesson.
Take away all the mysterious mysteries,
I will not be again a scapegoat for you,
Not a game as I am not your ******.
And I will start afresh this year now.

Broken New Year Resolution

the first day of the New Year
has got off to a bad start
the resolution I made was
jettisoned off my cart

when another New Year swings
around again
I'll put that one on
my must do freight train

over the past decade
I've had several broken intentions
which have resulted in
not sticking to conventions

those who can oversight
an annual oath well
might just like sharing
their keeper's spell

here I sit eating what
I vowed I wouldn't eat
but gee I am enjoying
that sugary treacle treat
