Nothing is better
Than being with friends
Or getting together
To celebrate
Everything and nothing
At the same time
Every year
there comes a time
When everyone decides
To forget about their troubles
To forgive any recent shortcomings
To just be together and have a good time
To open their eyes and see
That there’s more to life
Than misery
Some may say they apply this time
To be a part of their religion
But really and truly they just want
To be themselves
And have a good time
So while we sit here
Together
Sipping our hot chocolate
Eating our favorite family meals
Opening presents
Observing each passing smile
Listening to the joyful laughter
Cracking voices as we sing carols
Pigging out on cookies and cake
Sneaking a few pieces from the tiny candy home
Bribing your siblings not to tell
And most importantly counting the cash you received
Just remember that no matter what you’re facing
Or what wrong has been done in your life
Whether by you or someone else
There will always be good times ahead
And there will always be something you can look forward to
No matter what
Merry Christmas
