First Christmas Alone

Post 1

Lord Preston

As I sit here I ponder,
On what’s been won and lost
I marvel in jealous awed wonder,
As I watch the people stumble in the frost,
They laugh and sing behind the pane,
The greet each other with merriment,
And I finally doubt they are sane,
Because they just cannot be content.

Maybe I lost the plot,
Should I be with them out there?
Am I wanting something that’s not?
Surely I can leave and just not care,
But I can’t be like these people,
I’ve tasted the forbidden fruit,
I’m like a church with no steeple,
That I chose to leave you, I refute.
