New Year

What happened, and how did it come to this?
It started out so well, at least I thought
It seemed to start so. Promises of bliss
(At least contentment) which the new year brought
Lie unfulfilled. How did this happen? Why?
Were all those hopes I started with before
Simply foolish figments stuck in my
Overoptimistic mind, or more?
And as I turn again to a new year,
Imagining what it could hold for me,
Should I, in my imagination, steer
According to the past, wherein I see
This disappointment, and so be prepared
To see the new year's hopefulness impaired?
