Christmas Eve
The
lonely feeling of coming home
On
Christmas Eve
Knowing
that no one is waiting for me
Knowing
when I return home
It
will be empty and cold without cheer
There
will be no one here on Christmas day
To
help open the colorful boxes
I will
cook Christmas dinner for one
Later
I will watch a movie
That I
have watched so many times before
Falling
asleep on the couch
Dreaming
of the times we shared
When I
awake, the sun has gone down
And
the room is dark
I slowly
walk back to my bed
I will
lie there thinking
Of
Christmas past and try to sleep
With
this sinking feeling in my chest
And a
tear in my eyes
Merry Christmas to All
