new years eve 11.57pm

everyone was outside. music blaring, laughing, drinking, celebrating 12 months of achievements

but for you it was just a reminder of your 12 months of mistakes. you sat alone in your room. lights off, curtains drawn. your mind filled with failures. unable to evolve and progress like others

11.58pm

an unexpected knock startles your trance. you open your door to see ghost holding a bottle of cheap booze. celebration isnt his thing either

‘happy new year kiddo’
