Dawn of Genesis
A frivolous past was trod
The silent requiem plays inside
But to consider it as noise
Will be injustice to self
A crime of denying renewal
Denying hope, denying strength
But denying history is ignorance
Yet regretting it is futile
The past is mounted with an iron-clad
The future is a sight of the teary eyed
Yet the present is the fragile silence of the library
One word, one action, even one breath
Influences the people around
That is why
wisdom should be imputed
change should be accepted
life should be continued
We may sojourn in a quiet shade
But when our fortitude returns
We must continue on
Our footsteps are now engraved
In the surface of the earth they rest
We must make new ones without fear
This is my last words "Happy New Year"
