as night falls
my heart hurts
I have a lump in my throat
and it was a good day
it was
I’m just having a hard time
with Christmas this year
and I love Christmas
the decorations
the music
the presents
the giving
more than getting
the fun of it
the joy
the laughter
this year I’m just not there yet
hope it kicks in soon
it’s not about Santa for me
it’s about the birth of Jesus
I’ll focus on that
and hope
for the peace of Him
to lift the burden
from my heart
