A Dark Christmas

So again it seems
That time is here
A season of dreams
They only disappear
The visions of snow
Of a better place
A cold lonely show
I can't replace

The bright lights
Can't block it out
The solitary nights
The constant doubt
Holidays drawing in
Time to settle down
To a darkness within
Under it I'll drown

Happiness has fled
Leaving me behind
My joy lies dead
Rotting in my mind
Winter's icy blade
Digging in so deep
The pain remained
When I try to sleep

Where's that feeling
You're suppose to get
Instead I'm concealing
How I'm always upset
Shouldn't want to cry
At this time the year
No matter how I try
I'm still hurting here

Because I still care
I may now understand
So painfully aware
I've lost your hand
Seen any chance fade
I should have known
When logic is obeyed
I would remain alone
That time of the year has once again turned up and this time around it is rather short of the theoretical joy it is supposed to be - a general combination of the regular lack of cheeriness that I'm stuck with which has then been amplified through the contrast to the rest of the world and through the disparity makes everything seem so much worse
