A new year beckons,
Words not yet spoken,
Paths not yet taken ,
Hopes not yet dreamt.
Silently approaching,
Pulsating the edge of memory,
Words betrayed,
Paths encrumbled,
Hopes dashed.
As new year breaks,
The showing horizon,
The chilling morning breeze,
The past surreptitiously makes,
Its presence known :
Taunting ,
Threatening,
Terrorizing.
*Breathe*
But on this glistening first dawn,
Of potentialities and new beginnings,
I free myself from the past,
I invite what this day brings,
I hold the opportunity to renew
Words not yet spoken,
Paths not yet taken ,
Hopes not yet dreamt.
I only pray,
That the anticipated days ahead,
Will be everything than mundane.
To Claire, you are so far away. I don’t know what else to do. You made me so proud but lonely. I realised it for quite awhile now.
To Jo, you know my only regret is not spending more time with you.
To Shaun, a brand new day , a brand new you. You are still you , of course. Live up to this new you. Another chance for another change.
To Javier, although you spend the least time with us compare to any of the inner circle, but I’d like you to know , you are a great friend. We can always count on you. Don’t ever lose dat cute ah beng style.
To everyone else, happy new year. Let’s just do our best this year. (like how the japanese says it) =)
