Happy New Year
What
do I hope?
What do I dream?
What is there inside me
That makes me believe
That love is there?
What do I reach
for?
What do I long for?
What do I hold in my heart
That makes me believe
The world is beautiful?
Where am I
going?
Where will I come to?
Where does this path I trod
That goes on and on
Reveal at the end?
It is a new
year.
A happy new year.
That’s what they tell me
As I watch the bubbles
Pop and fade away.
At the end of
this new year
What will I find there?
Will this be the year
That I take my dreams
And soar away?
