New Year

The dream death;
while birthing a-
poem, weeping
between the lines.

Why do you grieve 
for the old year ? 
The moon will again- 
rise and you can

pick up the black 
roses for the baby dawn. 
Waging your war till 
eternity, you can kiss 

the red lips of morning 
sun. I welcome you, 
new year, in my tattered 
clothes and golden heart.
