You Ruin Christmas

Contributed by Chanti on Wednesday, 24th December 2003 @ 06:39:06 PM in AEST
Topic: Holiday Poetry

Beautifully decorated tree,
done by unloving hands,
hands that have never held someone,
and said they understand,

Gifts wrapped up in greed,
suffocating and bound with tape,
demanding everything in return,
a twisted kindness i cant escape,

and they invite all of thier family,
pretend everythings okay,
but then complain about how stuck up they are,
at the end of the day,

and i try to give and give,
but they wont accept my bleeding hands,
and the tattered emotions i hold,
they dont reach thier demands,

because my smile isnt fake,
and i dont dress my best,
and the music that i play,
isnt all jolly like the rest,

and they continue to be fake,
well i dont give a damn,
im not going to change for one stupid day,
i wont change who i am.

The best gift you can ever give is your words. Good write! You touch on the true meaning of x-mas, it's not what you get or what you give. It is all about who you are the rest of the time. Stay true to yourself
