Gift Exchange

For the holidays, we exchanged metaphors You recieved a chinese latern And I a snow globe Your lantern did not light Looked full but only held a space of nothingness My snow globe did not disturb settled fake snow There was no magic in my winter wonderland We laughed because we both knew Our thoughtless gifts held much more meaning then intended For the holidays, we exchanged metaphors for the love we shared (Or lack there of)
