Christmas Time Lonliness

This poem got so depressing...i apologize. I love xmas but its definitely hard if you dont have anyone to share it with! I do so i dont know why the hell I'm writing this haha...enjoy.

I saw the neighbors put up their Christmas lights this morning

But you wern't there to see them shine in the night

 

I saw a frighteningly realistic looking Santa Clause sit wide eyed children on his lap

But you wern't there to see one kid cry and run away

 

I saw tinsel hung through out every last store

But you wern't there to help me decide what presents I should buy

 

I heard carolers singing Holy Night on my driveway

But you wern't there to come out and listen with me

 

Now I just stay inside to be away, but when I turn on the TV everything is about Christmas

No, everything is about you

About wanting you to warm my hand

About wanting you to kiss me under the mistletoe

 

But you arn't here, you are the angel on top of my Christmas tree, looking down at all I do

While I stare up and look at you

I can never be good enough.

Oh yes i understand this feeling..... christmas and holidays surely suck when you are lone...... and seeing other happy couples just remind of the loneliness. Great job :D

You know, it's funny, but this poem reminds me very much of how Christian might feel at Christmas time, with Hallie's face looking a little too much like the angel for his comfort.... :)
