Christmas Eve is here

and I void of cheer

sit and remember the angst of the holidays

I swear there was a time

when you was mine

and life lacked any cares

but here we are

the night of the lone star

that I have to believe

my life was not in vain

one big failure stain

a victim of love, deceived

Soooo….what can I say?

It’s like any other day

with an assault of memory

my life has moved on

I’ve learned a new song

“Happy Christmas” to me
