My Christmas Wish

I'm waiting for you dear, waiting for you to forgive and then come and find me. The smile on your beautiful face, once just a crooked frown, now replaces an emptiness that I'm glad to see leaving. I wanted to hold you that night, as the evening's laughter turned to closed eyes and dreams of better times. I wish now that's all we had...better times to touch each other and fall asleep to the sound of soft breathing. That is my Christmas wish this year. If you only knew...you are always with me, the red star of all my dreams.

I Miss You

It's impossible to know why. Why do fond memories leave a bittersweet taste in my mouth? Why do I see red ribbons in dark skies? Why do I miss the worst parts about a love that never even existed? It's a mystery to me today, but I do.
