New Year's Wish

The clinking of glasses 
Could not this new year foretell
The words we had used
To ask and dispel
The luck we'd not gotten
Or gotten for fair
But without the perfection 
Of view in our minds
The clinking of glasses 
Rung in at this time

A cleansing rain 
From the window did wake
And a heart that literally hurt
Strained under the effects of too much want
And too little love
