| Thoughts On a New Year |
| 12:00 Happy New Year! Excitment surges within me Another year gone And a new one is dawning A new millenium I can't help but feel Happiness, joy For all I can think of is Six more months till summer Two more years till graduation Another day closer to college Another minute closer to the rest of my life And yet, I feel sorrow Bittersweet saddness For as each second ticks by My youth is fleeing me These years and moments I've so wished for are now becoming past I can feel myself change For I am becoming more and more aware Of the ways of the world I am no longer innocent And I can see, feel The child inside me Skipping dreamingly away |
