No Christmas Cards This Year
This year will be different
I'm going to start something new
I'm not buying you presents
Wait and see what I'll do
Those gifts from the past
Are now sitting in trash
The cards I picked out
Held more than just cash
Certificates and gift cards
Meant nothing to you
Your face was expressionless
What could I do?
This season I'll show up
Lovely poetry from me
Watch how your face cringes
Is this how you'll be?
I dare you to read it
And think that I care
To give you a gift like this
Would this be fair?
