Goodbye 2021,
Good riddance to you,
You won't be remembered,
For being filled with love and joy.
***
2020 had such hope,
2021 Was meant to save that,
And now that's all up to you 2022,
Please, oh please, don't let us down.
***
But before,
We lock the door,
On the book of 2021,
Let's take a look back once.
***
Find one thing,
That truly made you happy,
Hold it in the front of your mind,
Keep that as your memory of 2021.
***
Remember the people,
Everyone all around you,
Those people who were there,
To suffer, side-by-side, 2021 with you.
***
Of course there were dark times,
Of course there were bleak days,
But focus on the good around,
And try to forget the negative.
