New year

what's to be happy about

another year, another day

to be here and watch

the surroundings decay

I don't care for the new year

nor the new day for that matter

I just can't wait for the last

waiting for the day I shatter

what's so good about life

it's all just a direct path to failure

all the things that give us hope

for tomorrow, it's all lore

why should I celebrate it

it's just another hallow day

one step closer to the grave
where my body will forever lay

another year in this hell

more things to fear

can't wait until I leave

yeah, happy new year

It's the fear that makes it this way. Trust me.
Once you learn to mock fear, you start enjoying the trip a bit more.

Either way, great write. I can completely relate, given I pretty much just float through life now with an air of sarcasm and constant infatuation at the amount of bullshit our species can produce.

I like how you play with the bits of rhyming as you write the emotions of the days and years of being human with it being "just another hallow day".
Your descriptions I find unique and nice. When it comes down to it, it's the truth. New Year's or not, it is just another year and more days we all live until the day we die. Enjoyed.

@Canicus: Bravo Man! I am a back after one year and I am really happy to see your poem. I wish you all the best.

How bravely you placed your strong logic in favor of your opinion on new year!
I am amazed by your message.
I adore your creative work.

Put it to a beat and it sounds like a song. At least, that's how I read it. Very interesting take on "2013" or, "the new year". A lot of people probably feel this way, but never really try to admit it or see it the way it is.
