It's the end
We have reached here after many hours
Of a long and painful journey
Around an indifferent clock
It's the end
We have reached here after countless days
Of deep and endless worries
Along a tortuous path
It's the end
We have arrived after trying weeks
Of loud and desperate cries for help
Across a silent chasm
It's the end
We have arrived after lonely months
Of sad and painful separation
Among an oblivious crowd
It's here at last
They call it the end
Of a long wait they call a year
An end that they celebrate
With fireworks and cheers
Their end has arrived
but ours has not,
our journey has not yet ended.
Our pains, our worries
Our loneliness and separation
continues after the end
into another beginning
that they call a New Year.
The end is here
