Its the time of the year when the snow is falling,
and you can hear the mothers of small children calling.
"Tomorrow is Christmas! Santa will come as soon as you sleep."
they will get tucked in bed, not making one peep.
Christmas is tomorrow, all the kids will be dreaming,
of the moment they wake up and the sunlight is beaming.
run downstairs look at the presents!
but there wasn't anything under the tree, but little messes.
where are the presents all the kids wonder?
maybe its a dream I'm having in slumber.
"Wake up sleepy head."
i hear very softly, and i sit up in bed.
is it Christmas now?
go downstairs and look, don't be loud.
the tree is so bright, the presents, there's so many.
i wanna open them all, but i know mother wont let me.
I open a few, and eat Christmas cookies.
i drink some milk, and then watch some movies.
"Momma, i wish we had more."
"I know child, go up too bed close you door."
"Same time next year?"
"Yes of course, goodnight dear."
2 years ago
I met him
I met the guy i was meant for.
through bitterness
the icy snow breaking on my skin
the harsh pain of the cold chunks making my skin red
it was so cold so cruel
no one to help me
only the ignorant boys taunting me
taunting me.
happiness feels my body
is someone here to help me?
his blonde hair blowing around from the crisp wind
his pale blue eyes so beautiful
his voice deep, and soothing.
the ice chunks hit the ground in front of the boys.
he stopped it
no more taunting from their cruel hearts
that evening was blissful.
is 2 years as long as you think?
not when you spend it getting to know someone you love
he didn't want me like i wanted him
my stomach tied twisted knots
the thought of him not wanting me back.
we spent every day together
he makes me my happiest
he is my everything and i love him.
things change he always told me and they get better
he made me the person i am today.
now we lay cuddled up together in my bed
watching a movie, happy.
he kisses me gently and i want more.
but baby steps.
baby steps.
he is mine now
i will do nothing to change that.
This is my first poem. Based on the love of my life and how we met.
