everyone was dressed at their best. the long awaited time to mark the beginning of a new year. the anxiety. butterflies in the stomach, busy busy day ahead on the eve itself. when the day arrives, nothing was looked forward to except for the presence of family members from near and far. and when the clock strikes 8 and you know that it's dinnertime, you were all smiles and nothing but excitement.
but how could excitement last when it wasn't a whole. the circle that was once a complete one has now become one that has holes in between. the space that were left there just like that, the gap that were created among one another. how could a new year ever be awesome with the absence of your loved ones. family warmth, togetherness was one of the main purpose of the day. but what is the meaning of something when it goes missing?
those that were once mine, disappear this time around. those that is not seen coming, appear altogether. a little different this time...routines all turn around, surprises appear now and then.
how would next year be?
