last christmas
we stood around the tree
and laughed and opened presents.
i didn't realize last christmas would be the last.
the last time we would sit in that house and eat and watch movies.
the last time we would smile at each other while
not worrying about our problems
for just that one day.
the last time
we would be a family.
the last time i would be happy.
the last time that we would all be happy.
if i had realized last christmas would be the last, i'd savor every
moment. every laugh, every bite, every
movie, every smile. i would
relive that day forever;
last christmas.
