For Margaret, Another Christmas Letter

In a bliss of restful solitude on this most blessed day, my mind goes back in time to how we celebrated our ways I remember the laughter and love that flowed around the room, the excitement and joy we felt before you were taken too soon All the children of our family were close like cousins should be, but with your passing we drifted along the winds, we split, in three For a few years we attempted to relive the days gone past, as time passed people vanished and it was never going to last See the light that filled our voids had dimmed and faded away And broken pieces of my family I weep still too long holding a sway Mum you left deep within my heart memories that time cannot erase, even as I sit alone on christmas day I feel you with me in this scared space I still count the days we've been apart but I rejoice in the fullness of time, our hearts will again meet at the chest beating together infinitely sublime I'm getting closer to the doors that will lead the way home to you, difficult doesn't begin to describe How my heat yearns turning blue So until the end of my times arrive I will continue to write to you in word, Hello from the otherside my darling Its Christmas again, another poem unheard
