if this time of year also sucks for you,
because of family or whatever
you can come sit with me by the fire
and we don't even have to talk about it
except maybe later, when we have a couple drinks
but until then, or even if it doesn't happen, we can just sit here and enjoy each other's company
the house is lightly decorated
not too wild, just the few memories we cherish
and the lights, because the lights are my favorite part
the weather hasn't even been cold but it's going to snow tonight, so it'll be a white christmas, because that's how it's suppose to be
it's supposed to be joyous too, but
again, we don't have to talk about it
I caught that shaky inhale and I know what is going through your head
the world is a mess and we for some reason are suppose to be a light in it all
we can try
we'll certainly light up a bowl
probably going to pass on the cheery christmas music, but we can dance around the living room to some good bops anyway
no special ham, or turkey, but the food will be good, and there will be cookies
maybe we'll even start a new tradition or something
perhaps we can reclaim some of that joy and heal
