Dark Winter

Shimmering tree, now just a piece of dust,
Fairy lights glow darkness.
Pills replace the treats,
The star not so high.

Presents, there are none,
Laughter, lost in the snow.
Melted snowman with melted dreams,
Waits to be built again.

A gift that slipped from the hands,
Waits to be forgotten.
But the pieces too sharp,
Stabbed into the heart.

Turning the clock around,
With agitated hands.
Hoping things would turn itself,
Darkness would drain by.

Fireplace with charred photos,
Fills the air with demise.
Tears that rolled down the cheek,
Told a story of promises.

This winter it is black,
With no one to paint the life.
This winter is unlit,
With no one to entwine
