December
Stacie Lawhead 1986 (CA)
Usually covered in white
Looks so deprived and dry.
But it is Christmastime.
So joy, hope, faith, and rejoice.
For it is Christmastime.
But this year your not here
Without you, it is not the same.
But it is Christmastime.
Usually decorated full of lights
Looked like the house glowed all night.
Looks like the day is night
So lifeless inside.
So at least one light for you my love.
For it is Christmas Eve night.
I hope you see my light.
