How Do You Feel

The big beautiful tree,
meant Christmas to me.
All the little white lights were lit,
shinning down on the skirt that had been knit.
Very bright paper wrapped all the boxes,
some had a print of foxes.
I could hardly wait for Christmas morning to arrive,
now into the gifts I would dive.
My curiosity was in full bloom.
I opened one by one each lovely gift with zoom.
When I came upon your gift I could not believe my eyes,
your gift was filled with all lies.
I have been hurt by your evil ways,
Good-bye is all I can say.
