The jolly season

Eleven months we do what we want
we hurt people and we don't care
we go along with all we want
until the last month

Then we need to care and love
then we all need to forgive
then we need to think about
all we did previous to that month
then we need to be jolly

Eleven months and no one cares
then the twelfth is there
and we all hug and kiss and forget
this all just makes me sad

Then I feel my loneliness
then I look around to see
I have lost so much these years
and they're never coming
back to me

Eleven months pass by
ten of them I lay down and cry
one will be filled with joy and laughter
the pain will continue forever

Then I hear the music playing
then I see the shopping people
full carts and bags and smiley faces
the whole world filled
with happy places

Why just in the twelfth month
why not every single day
if we all would give a little
we could be jolly all year.....

Sad Christmas times can be cold and lonely.
