In The New Year

 

In The New Year

In the New Year, I wish for normality

All the things, that mean the most to me

Everyone treated as equal, no one is above

All the hate banished, and a lot more love

No force, no enemies, friends working together

All the special moments, that we can treasure

No pointing fingers, with revenge, at those who disagree

Nobody should be a prisoner, in the land of the free

Nobody should ever, in this world, be abused

It's not the human way, for anyone to be used

In this country, we need so much more respect

To add to that, we need to have less neglect

Freedom should always ring true, in this country we live in

I believe 2026, is a great place for better things to begin

Liars, cheaters, the rich, and those who have the power to do

Should never be the ones, to ever undermine you

Adults should never, sexually abuse anyone

That should never be, anyone's idea of fun

This has got to stop, and I mean right away!

This isn't the USA, when all colors turn to gray

In the New Year, let's bring back normality

This year it wasn't, the way it should ever be

There's so much more to add to this, but I will end it here.

I want the America back, the one I know and love.

We the people, must bring it back.
