IT'S CHRISTMASSSSSSSSSSSSSS


I LIKE TO GO INTO STOCKINGS


HAPPY CHRISTMAS AND A GUID NEW YEAR


I was thinking about Gifts and Christmas. There are all kinds of Gifts,
They are not always Gold, Frankincense and Mur or Lint Chocolate or flowers. There are other gifts too

THE GIFTS

All that is left
the ruins you see
a lifeless shadow
a shrinking soul

these are the gifts
you have left for me

Nerves are open
exposed alive
ready to welcome incoming pain
gorging hungry greedy for pain

these are the gifts
you have left for me

Left in the shadows
hiding alone
scared to go out
a shriveled wreck

these are the gifts
you have left for me

Mind exposed
tender raw
sledge hammer blows they pound
cheating spiteful lies they pound

these are the gifts
you have left for me

Left in the gutters
tossed aside
piece of garbage
an empty vessel

these are the gifts
you have left for me

Guts exploding
bile rising
heart torn and split like a chasm
broken bleeding gaping chasm

these are the gifts
you have left for me
these are the gifts
you have lavished on me

AND SOMETHING A BIT MORE CHEERY!

THE ONE BEFORE (Christmas Cheer)

Merry Christmas Baby

I have all your presents here
there're the last ones waiting
underneath my naked tree
if only you would come home to me
if only you were here
your smile would be my Christmas lights
your kiss my Christmas cheer

So I'll have another glass
to wash down the one before
and the one before the last

Merry Christmas Baby

It's today that hurts the most
I'll be glad when it's all done
get back my normal pain
it's your teasing and all your laughter
if only you were here
your smile would be my Christmas lights
your kiss my Christmas cheer

So I'll have another glass
to wash down the one before
and the one before the last
