Christmas Wish

Christmas Wish

A Poem by Alex P.
"

Kind of catty... Merry Christmas!

"

It was but one year ago,

When you got down on one knee

With the love in your eyes,

Shining like the lights on the Christmas tree

 

Now a year later,

And my left hand is bare,

I sit here wondering

And each winking Christmas light

Leaves in my heart a little tear

 

I thought it’d be forever,

I thought you would be true,

But I guess a year’s a long time,

And I overestimated you

 

So now I sit at home,

With lights and chocolates all around,

But my heart is a little lightened,

With all the happiness that I have found


Music’s crooning in my ear,

And there are decorations as far as I can see

I’m determined, you know,

You won’t ruin this season for me

 

So let us raise our glasses,

Feast on turkey, stuffing and more,

As I replace last year’s memories,

And purge you from my core

 

Now the festivities are underway,

Set off without a hitch,

I’ve just one last thing to say to you:

Merry Christmas, you son of a b***h

=)

"Last Christmas, I gave you my heart, the very next day you threw it away, this year to save on the tears, I'll give it to someone speeeeeeeeecial."

...

Let's pretend I don't know the words to that song.

Look, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, right? So let's see some hell and fury!
