Blessed be.
Velumbound.
Here's a moving reflection on grief, transition, and renewal as the hidden speaker navigates the boundary between an old year and a new one.
It captures the tension between holding onto lonely memories and finding the courage to move forward.
(A lone voice whispers)
So I can feel you still here
Walking slowly with me into a new year
As the old year bows and blows a golden trumpet of
Who knows
Like a wind that catches fire
As the minutes and seconds
Quick step and retire
I know old promises will be hard to let go
As the golden trumpet blows
Of secret things of dreams you said to yourself
But let's start anew
Me and you
Let's walk together into a new year
Filled with no fear
As the old year bows and blows a golden trumpet of
Who knows
Like a wind that catches fire
As the minutes and seconds
Quick step and retire
