In just a few hours it will be 2025.į
The constantly increasing number feels awkward, so once again, for the first few weeks I might be striking two lines across 2024 and fixing it to a 5 instead. Despite the January when I vowed to live well, I have no idea how I spent the other eleven months. The leaves that grew each day resembled the green of my fervent love, and sometimes it would pale yellow, and at other times it would flash an agitated red just like a throbbing headache. I still can't get used to the chilly weather, so I step on the crushed leaves as I mutter words to myself.
I know well how you feel, lonely even when there are people to hear. A lonely person said that we are lonely because we are born lonely. I nodded, even as I disagreed on the inside. While saying if there are many who are lonely, can't we just embrace each other. It's okay even if you don't embrace me. I'd still like to embrace you eagerly.
I will remember your pupils, swaying in the darkness.
I will remember your tears, bursting out like a cough.
When you close your eyes and open them again, it will be a new day.
Let us change, and let us never change.
Let us move, yet let us remain.
Let us hold our hands like so. Let us step forward.
Let us welcome a strange dawn, whose yesterday is last year and today is a new year.
+Rec for the first song of the new year
I vow, that I will sing
Always dreaming like a child
I will fall down a lot
I will walk further
I promise, that I'll never let go
Always green like the trees
We'll grow together
I'll hold you
It's all precious, I'll remember
Just like the clear rainbow
That appears after rain
Everything will be okay
I'll believe in you
