Fog
The sun rises closer to the new year
A refreshing fog envelops the city
I never imagined that my life would lead here
Intertwined with others and yet so happy.
A refreshing fog envelops the city
Early morning joggers, mothers grasping small hands, security guard nodding
Intertwined with others and yet so happy
Slipping through their days, joyful moments rushing.
Early morning joggers, mothers grasping small hands, security guard nodding
Enveloped in their own lives, struggles of the world forgotten
Slipping through their days, joyful moments rushing
So many lost, so much destroyed, so many names, fallen.
Enveloped in their own lives, struggles of the world forgotten.
And yet, the sun rises closer to the new year
Remembering so many lost, so much destroyed, so many names, fallen.
Through the fog, the sun must rise to the new year .
