Happy New Year!

I am waiting for your arrival
Inebriated;
Cocooned with my solitude
Surrounded by the cacophony
Of loud music
And the senseless dance steps.

Why dear
You come only once every year
Wearing that seductive perfume
With the aroma of champagne.
Yearning for your love
I shout with madness
“Happy New Year”
When you appear
Donning the new avatar
And holding that vanity case
Filled with the promises
Of prosperity and happiness.

My mate
This year, you come on every date;
I don’t want to long for your caress
With a calendar marked off
With broken resolutions.
This year
Bring me some peace
Topped with joy and hope;
Stay with me the entire year
With your new thoughts
Intoxicating me
With honesty and generosity;
Every moment
Could you show me
The path to humanity?
