A Christmas

It's the time for Christmas
I was walking down the side walk
listening to carolers singing,
we wish you a merry christmas, 
and singing deck the halls, 
with joy in there hearts. 
Tis the time for Christmas when I 
was walking down the side walk, 
hearing the toy's store
door bells ringing as I walk in, 
hearing the sounds of coins and paper 
bill's in and out of the cash register, 
as they are opening and shuting.
Tis the christmas season for joy, and love
in everybody's hearts, 
christmas is the time to of year to have
family and friends over. 
Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas!!!!

Door

i love you now  and forever more yet why did i shut the  door on life.
i acted like you hated me to explain what you do yet you love me but why  do
i not say i know you.i make you sad by writing these poems  yet why cant i stop
forgive me im sorry i should just stop,you loved me and still do yet why dont i say 
i know its true i act like its a lie but its not. door is now closed and locked for now
you stay with me waiting to see what i have to say you say hardly anything so you 
will never make me sad yet i dont get it but yet i do i have always understood you
shuting the door on life is bad thats the only reason i had ever made you sad.
i said you hate me just to get you to tell me you love me  yet why do i keep 
making you cry and you die die inside.
