A New Year
The world revolves around a single year
People’s ambitions
Business’ projections
Lover’s measurement of time
Why do we focus so much on a broad sense …
This year was bad …
Hope the next one is better
365 days
8760 hours
525600 minutes
31536000 seconds

tick .. tock …
Why wait
Why wish to do something now that it’s over
A resolution I’ll make
Just to break
And make again on the next turn of the wheel
A new beginning comes at an ending
but why wait …
Why can’t a “year” be instantaneous …
Don’t wait for the clock to tick down to change
People focusing so hard
As if that sparkling sphere was a magic 8-ball
5 …

1 …
Eyes closed …
Breath held …
Wishing for better
Praying for new beginnings
Celebration …
For nothing …
Why does 1 second out of 31536000 cause so much inspiration
Why does that 1 second alter thinking
Why can’t we do that on our own …
Break the cycle …
Don’t get caught up in the rotation
Change when you want to Change
Better yourself when you need to
But don’t wait for the global countdown …
… Mass hysteria …
