Failed Man



This year has come to an end,
a blanket of snow has covered the ground,
and you are no longer in my arms,
although you regularly come into my dreams.

And, last year at this time,
we were sharing the joys of snow together,
making plans where we would go for New Year's Eve,
fully enjoying our youth.

And now, here, the New Year is on the doorstep again,
around me are happy children and smiles of happiness,
people got into a festive mood,
a girl receives flowers from her boyfriend.

I look at the sky as an answer to wait.
To whom and where on this winter evening?
Since you are not in my life,
I am a failed man who has no luck.

    To me this seems like a time for healing and inner growth. Maybe you'll find your diamond in the rough is actually you.
