Ding rings the bell, as floor five marks my quest,Alone in this box, absence of thought, feeling blessed.No hurried suits, no grumpy teens,Just silence, steel, and sipping at my coffee beans.

In the haze of resolutions madeA fresh start, a path newly laidPromises echo, intentions portrayedYet the road is treacherous, fraught and frayed Gym memberships, a pledge to shed weightA diet begun with the best of stateBut as the days pass, the resolve abatesIn the face of temptation, determination deflates Financial goals, a budget to createBut…

Beneath the stars, a hopeful sigh,As the year bids its sweet goodbye,A lingering wish in the twilight sky,For a New Year’s Eve kiss, oh so high. Countdown begins, the clock’s embrace,A yearning heart in a quiet space,Anticipation paints a hopeful trace,For lips to meet in a tender grace. Confetti flutters, champagne in hand,In the crowd,…
