| Fear Snow Russian Tea Nutella BB-guns Coats Matchbox Cars Memories Pain On the Tree Around each corner Out the door Brought by songs Sparked by smells In each stocking Missing traditions Holidays bring Eviscerating pain Loneliness and tears Laughter like knives Cuts my heart Pilfers my Strength Clutter my thoughts Destroy my defenses Darkness surrounds Everywhere I look Arises in my mind Through the fog Helpless feelings as Christmas becomes Celebration of Death Love Seems lost Hidden away Can�t be found Clawing to get out Hurts like hell So much laughter Like the evil witch Twisted Surreal Shadowy Shrunken Darkness Encroaches Pierces Doesn�t belong Tears in my eyes Beauty is lost Symbols seem trite Lies thinly veiled To banish pain Festering sores Swelling with rot Decay in my spirit. written by the lufmiester, 2003 |
