No one home for Christmas
I cannot hear a word.
Songs and hymns are silent
Quietness is heard.
I want to talk to someone.
But no one can be found.
I’m flooded by my loneliness
In Despair I have drown.
Nothing on the Christmas tree
Not a bulb or flashing light.
I find no joy in what I do
On this or any night.
My hands reach out to emptiness.
My voice cries out in pain.
A home that can no longer breathe
Is one that’s gone insane.
An empty life’s in my hands
with echoes of nobody there.
Cannot find a smiling face
It is like nobody cares.
No one home for Christmas
My friends can’t see my life.
Them not being here with me
Feels like a stabbing knife.
I will give me presents
All marked from myself.
With tears running from my eyes
I’ll crawl back on the shelf.
