Slept all afternoon, no will to remain conscious;
Awoken several times by raucous;
Returned to sleep where dreams are spacious.
23:30 and I could no longer snooze;
Sleep sounds peaceful, except I cannot choose;
For now fireworks erupt like rainbows over this cruise.
I bet they were beautiful, full of energy and good spirits.
But I prefer to sleep alone here in secret.
The new year is upon us, but time is only a habit.
I care not if the date is changed;
Time, after all, won't stop for even a moment;
Never has. Never will. Not in this life.
So why should I bother celebrating a new year?
It comes around annually arranged;
There a endless "new years" to come anyhow.
Slept until the new year, but now I stay awake…
Reading a book until sleep,
But it remains fleeting and useless as counting sheep.
