Farewell

Once again it's that time of the year, 
when you wonder amidst the festivities,
how the year just passed us by.

Creating global history, 
slithering away with precious souls of loved ones,
adding some priceless lives to give the much needed hope.

Knots of some relationships loosened, 
bonds of some strengthened,
some friendships lost and forgotten in the haze of neglect.

Dreams shattering into countless pieces, 
hope sinking like a drowning wreckage,
hunger, abuse, racism lifting its head to the surface.

But life goes on, we the ones, survived to say goodbye, 
we can hold on a little bit longer,
only if we  see ourselves in others.

Protect and preserve humanity,
rise up to the occasion,
live and let live.

Farewell to the year that taught us,
nothing is more important than health,
happiness, family & friends.
