Because you are expected to follow 2016
With beauty and grace;
You are expected to bring
Better days,
Happiness;
You have the weight of the world
Resting in your hands
As if you were Atlas himself.
But you aren’t Atlas,
And you aren’t the solution
To everything that’s gone wrong.
You’re 2017,
And I want you to know
There’s at least one person
Who doesn’t expect you to be
More than you’re capable of.
