I may be empty I may be lost and I may be scared of what's to come, of what's happened and of what is happening sometimes I wish I could eat happily sometimes I wish I had a map sometimes I wish I'd stop trembling whenever I had to face things I didn't want to face I wonder how many smiles I've given that were as fake as Made in China products I wonder how many times I held out instead of succumbing to the weaker, much fragile side of me I wonder how many times I gave me a reason to love me Maybe sometimes I deserved that pat in the back too?

Santa's lament
I may be empty I may be lost and I may be scared of what's to come, of what's happened and of what is happening sometimes I wish I could eat happily sometimes I wish I had a map sometimes I wish I'd stop trembling whenever I had to face things I didn't want to face I wonder how many smiles I've given that were as fake as Made in China products I wonder how many times I held out instead of succumbing to the weaker, much fragile side of me I wonder how many times I gave me a reason to love me Maybe sometimes I deserved that pat in the back too?
