The night feels cold once more-
A blizzard through the mist,
Freezing every lonely soul.

I’m here,
A victim of the dark,
Shivering under my blankets,
With my eyes fixated above-
A never-ending darkness
Filled with shining stars,
A guiding light to something bigger,
And that is you-
Reflective light shining above me.

No matter how bright you shine,
Your beauty is seen but untouchable-
A fish in the deep black,
Nearly impossible to catch.

Still laying here,
Shivering under my blankets.
Music in my head,
my only companion-
A fireplace in the middle of this forest of devastation,
A place where shadows lure me out of comfort

Following me with a familiar tune,
something like this:
“Such a lonely night,
And it’s mine
It’s a night
I’m glad I survived.”

Witnessing the change of nature now,
We will soon meet again,
O Queen of the darkness-
Torture of us outcasts,

When will the night
Feel warm again?
For the answer,
I’ll wait.

Wind marches away
Trees grow older and older
Waiting for sunshine

The stains of the past are still there
Like the marks of a coffee cup on the tablecloth
Identifying us for who we are
Teaches us to use a saucer
Our gained knowledge
before leaving more stains

A new year begins
Now we have a chance to start again
This time with more understanding and experience
To guide us through our next trial
Wishing us all the
Success,
Happiness,
Joy
May these future memories last forever
Like the past ones

I keep my phone close to me to see if you wrote me
I put my phone away to keep myself from waiting
But my head keeps thinking about your next text
My last text hasn't been read yet.
So I keep waiting and thinking about her and how it used to be.

Lying in bed
Thinking about nothing
Staring at the ceiling
Thinking about nothing
Grabbing my phone
Forgetting the reason
Grabbing my book
Feel no motivation to read it

Grabbing my quill and ink
Writing in a blink
To let my thoughts sink
As my body and mind sink into that deep blue
Trying to break through
Stones engraved on me like a tattoo
They fade but return
Darkness is my inker
And my thoughts are the ink

Presents under the tree
Screaming parents
Not feeling part of my family
My hair is to blame
My clothes are to blame
I am to blame
An ordinary Christmas
A perfect Christmas
Next year will be different

Cold days began to come
Cold feelings began to come
This time of the year are always hard,
but then
The sun came
Made the snow melt
the cold fade away
But please tell me -
the moon
when you feel cold so I can light the world with you so you are not alone
I'm sure the eclipse will be here soon and the whole world will be in awe of our presence

Therefore,
I wish you a Merry Christmas
May your sun shine even brighter in the years to come
than the past ones
