The Mystery Of A Year
I must confront the mystery of a year where I lost my way
countless times but was yet blessed enough to recover.
This year rife with confrontations so destructive I cannot say
if any degree of peace has yet to be realized and discovered.
I have witnessed the mystery of a year seldom endured
with little more than some second-rate deception manifest.
May the new year bring convictions far more assured,
this is the sincere wish to which I now humbly attest.
I must confront the mystery of a year when many passed
into another world we were singularly unable to share.
The days were dark, prospects dim, resolutions did not last
as I plunged into the lower depths completely unprepared.
I cannot ignore the mystery of a year when so much died
in the name of some perverted ideal we sought to attain..
May the new year bring glad tidings, and may it provide
some way to assuage all our feelings of defeat and blame.
