It was the last week in November, all hazy
When I heard a loud bang from a distance
Only to peep and saw flickers in the sky
Then it occurred to me, Ah! it's that time of the year again
When we see those burst of colours and a dazzling skyline
Lost in its wondrous, fleeting and gorgeous view
I was reminded of life's impermanent shade
A spark, a soar, a fading and a distant gleam
A testament to life's ephemeral dream
Your journey with people could make you happy today
And tomorrow it may be filled with sadness, that's okay
If there's sadness, there will always be happiness too
Let go of sorrow, embrace joy like a close kin
Write your own story, leave a radiant trace
Happiness and sadness are a constantly shifting tide
Like fireworks, let some emotions subside
Hold onto blissful memories, let go of the rest
Your happiness is your own, it's a personal quest
Just like fireworks, shine bright, burn bold
Leave your mark, unseen but forever serene
