2012 a new beginning

i wrote this at midnight 12:00 am janurary first

i guess this is it 2012 is here full of resolutions won’t even make it to the twelfth we’ve set our aim to the stars yet lose sight of our goal soon after  so many empty promises waiting to be filled such high spirits with so little willpower as i lay here and watch the stars my one resolution is to make her smile whoever she might be everything i need i have i just need to use it  i guess my real resolution should be to stop being so afraid of the world yet it seems so ominous to me i’ve been an optimist full of pessimistic ideas i guess its time to change that and finally open up to the world

A realist in a world of resolutions. Good write. While it needs a little more structure in form, the thoughts in here are good.

I like, "i’ve been an optimist full of pessimistic ideas."
That's a pretty good line. You could build a lot of things off of it.
