Description
Its that time of year again,
Time to pull myself together,
Time to put on that fake cheer.

Im only going to see my elders
My Grandpa.
Not for any other reason.
This holiday's pointless now.
Did it really ever have a meaning?
It used to, to me. To my Family.

My family's so lost.

My brother unmistakebly jaded.
My sister so afraid of the one
She used to love.

And my mother, Bittersweet.
Whats that over her eyes?
What hides her from this world so much?
From this paralyzed family,
Is this just another Cliche'?

Of another broken home,
From another broken family?
Rules are lost inside that ever fake sanctuary.
That house that used to be our family's home.
Now lost within this haze of shadowed covered eyes.

But thats not the point of christmas time.
Its time to put on another fake smile.
On this first Christmas day.
Without my dad.

Hes exiled from this house,
And in doing so.
It will never be a home again.
