The color of Christmas is blue this year
My heartbroken heart can't hold any cheer
Each home is decorated with bright lights
But this sad ache is what fills my nights

Family and friends gather round the tree
Exchanging gifts and laughing merrily
Outside the window I watch the snow fall
Thoughts of our Christmas last year I recall

The taste of your lips under mistletoe
The warmth of your touch which set me aglow
A promise of forever and a day
These things and more have now faded away

Until this heart has had time for healing
Thoughts of happiness it won't be feeling
My heartbroken heart can't hold any cheer
The color of Christmas is blue this year

Pinkyblue,
Being alone for the holidays is the worst as you have aptly described in your sensitive poem. "sniff" ~L

Sadness and despondency, happiness and joy, are so human. No one can go through this life without experiencing some or all of each...is this not so, Miss Pinky?

I have a wish for you, dear heart, but I'll not tell it to you, but you'll know it when you feel it. No game. No mystery. It's not the time for those. It's the time for wishes and hope.
