2022 Departure
Year of regrets and despair,
You repeatedly mock and taunt.
I vehemently beg you to depart
Flee, nevermore return to torture us.
You swooped in with a raging vengeance
And took all that your anger desired,
Leaving much destruction in your wake.
May you move forward, leaving us
In humble solitude and reflection.
And may the ensuing year be filled
Only with those things contrary to your pain
And may we grow so that we heal and prosper,
Allowing us to forget the depths of your sadness.
