A New Year Comes and Goes

A button is pressed rewinding life’s story as everything
Is looked back upon, and remembered as a dear memories.
 

Now once again it’s time to push aside all that’s done,
And start anew. Celebrations take place, and a flurry excitement

 

Adorns the merry people as they wait for the ball to drop.
Click! All is erased for a fresh start, but all hasn’t really vanished

 

For the history is collected and stored way in the back
Where no one heeds left somewhat forgotten.

 

With a “new” start plans are made, and a cycle continues
As an attempt to dismiss poor habits are tried, and worthier ones started.

 

Soon time goes by, the celebrations cease, and everything
Goes back to the way it was before while the “new” becomes the “old” once again.
