Empty Chair 2

Each passing day you are in my thoughts
Memories of special time spent together
Please let us today remember those days
Today is one of those day which is harder
Yes we will leave a place for you to share

Christmas day it can be the loneliest time
Happier times can become a distant dream
A time where families once spent together
Is now spent so far apart fighting old wounds
Remember Christmas it is just once a year

I am sorry for your lose, I write what ever comes into my mind when I should be asleep, I know the words can resonate with others
