New Year New You

The clock struck twelve and I was a year older The fireworks went off and I gave a shudder The cheers went up and I just couldn't bother The New Year promises so much But is it just another day? Promises are made and will be broken As life and living are never perfect matches Dreams and lives seem refreshed as the old year disappears The saga that is life so far keeps rolling on Some may even wonder when it will all end I promise to........ I forget as soon as I say what I will do I don't want to feel tied down To a moment that might not come true I'll just live my life from day to day I will guard my feeling and keep my heart at bay I will never over reach myself I will not let my cares smother all the good I do I will promise to not do what I shouldn't do As long as it’s pleasurable and doesn't make me blue I will be whatever the moment calls me to be I will never give up on living for me and maybe you Fingers crossed this new year will bless you And will favour whatever I do
