that christmas in whistler
you led me towards something
glorious
i met new people
we shared stories
and i stood by the mountain
while skiers came towards me
gracefully
like a dance upon the snow
synchronized
your presence was everywhere
i could finally see
as your beautiful crystals
showered me
your sun still came to shine
and the star upon the trees aligned
and when it was time to get in line
i saw others just like me
alone at christmas time
oh Yahweh
oh Yahweh
almighty one
how pleasing to know
you chose me
for your son
Many people spend Christmas alone, it's a thing that holds some kind of taboo. Many of those people don't talk about it, and likely that's because they really don't want the pity or the judgment.
