Goodbye and a Welcome
All the days that passed by
All the memories that made us cry
All the good days that we laughed so high
It’s a goodbye for a year that gave us life
We failed, we tried
They managed yet some of us gave up
New born babies cried out loud
Sorrowful moments in funeral whines out
Life moved on
Strangers walked in
Friends walked out
The few precious ones remained all throughout
Learnt new things
Recommended
Recalled the known
While you enjoyed the long nights
They cried themselves to sleep tight
A step closer to those dreams
Another day you’ve lived
You’ve learnt a lot, from people and things
You are grown up, to be better than yesterday
To all those lessons learnt
To all those that made you strong
For the situations that gave you hope
For the moments you could never turn to words…
Happy endings for a beautiful 2017
