somebody's dungeon

If you can sneak by
the wreath on the door,
the candy cane walkway
whipped cream on the floor,
the holly, the mistletoe
all the pretty wrapped stuff,
the songs, oh the songs, I've had enough.

Sneak in on the sly
come take me away
from Christmas, from New Years
from this holiday.
Back to reality, back to what's real
take me away from this depression I feel.

Santa's not here, so the angel is missing
I don't want gifts, or peppermint kissing
just a little girl, that's all I need
in pj's and slippers under the Christmas tree.

WhiteRose - Dear poetess, this brings tears to my eyes.....and we shouldn't be sad at Christmas. It is a blessed time. Allow all of us here at Passions to circle round you and send you soothing thoughts. May the New Year be brighter for you sweet lady. hugs, Chris

that perches in the soul....

Yes, Anne, I know the feeling. I miss my "little girl", too.
