Christmas

Christmas what are you?

Pleasure and fun?

Emptiness, loneliness

And a massive toy gun.

Christmas what are you...

To people in the streets?

Love, friendship, happiness?

Loss of hope and believe.

Christmas what are you...

In countries of war?

Silence, peace, freedom?

A night without dawn.

Christmas what are you...

More than a dream...

Of smiles and acceptance

One might never see?

Christmas what are you...

In days like these?

A little light shining somewhere

In a thousand different ways!
