Christmas Angst
Christmas is a tricky path for some people to yearly travel,
With so much anticipation, for them things begin to unravel.
The expectation that each one holds for this season of cheery light,
Can fall apart as they anticipate the coming Holy night.
Then by their wave of disappointment you may take the hit,
If you’re standing in their line of fire when their fuse gets lit.
It’s not the way that they would expect themselves to be,
But when blinded by their wants they just can’t seem to see.
And the meaning of Christmas that is found all around them,
Never gets a chance to be near enough to touch or astound them.
Don’t let their lack of vision blind you from the holy blessed light,
And keep the true meaning of the season held firmly in your sight.
And know that if you hold on to the friends that you love the tightest,
That’s when the lights of Christmas will always shine their brightest.
