Broken Dreams
Constant aches, constant pains.
Oh sweet peppermint candy canes.
year after year, wishing on that bright, old star
Wondering how you are.
Torn apart by the court.
It's time for cheer, for Christmas is here.
Tiz not the time to mourn.
Tiz the time of year yet again,
to be with you,
But only in my faded memory.
Year after year,
missing birthday after birthday.
Year after year,
no family Thanksgiving dinner.
Year after year,
asking Santa for what I know he can't give.
Have all the cousins forgotten one of their own?
Aunts and Uncles too?
What about the older sister,
and brother.
Have they forgotten as well?
Ten years of being seperated,
doubt they remember.
Only time will tell
