In the wake of a new year, it feels like a fresh start. It’s seems like the best time to do away with old habits, and get on with new exciting things. As humans, there is the optimism that a new beginning brings about a fresh start, making everything alright. Like turning the switch off and putting it back on again would make life all figured. It would be nice if life had the ‘factory reset’ button.
Its been but a moment I took a breath
How heavy was the weight, I slowly faded away
A relief was all I needed, yet it seemed so difficult to come by
As the path went further into a state of monotony
Its been but a moment I stopped to think
How quick memories are laid one on another, like books on an old library book-shelve
There are many to reflect upon
Nevertheless, each one counts as a stepping stone, where the future shall be laid
Its been but a moment I laughed
The breath it takes out of ones lungs, happiness that drains strength
Who would have known that emotions of any kind has its toll
One that is worth it, who knows what comes next
Its been but a moment I wrote
Fingers rebel against the mind, as the mind wrestles itself
Pen on paper, beauty is always the outcome
Its the joy that comes with the expressions
Its been but a moment I had something new
The endless possibilities of what it could do, yet the new becomes old
Optimistically, again a chance for something new
This one is never ending, something new will always come with the break of day
