2011 – The New Year

At the stroke of midnight

the year begins again

and in that special moment

this past one will end

Laying down the past

and picking up the new

not going to be the same

doing it without you

He used to regret the past

the future was unclear

now, hoping it’s better

dreaming without fear

Soon he’ll walk the distance

that keeps them far apart

the tug of her calls him

and that dark relentless heart.
