On a cold, bitter Christmas Eve, I wandered down an unknown path and at its end sat a small, isolated tree; it's branches – leafless and frosted with ice – shimmered and twinkled in the moonlight.

From that tree fell a frozen tear that shattered into a million pieces against the snow, concurrently with the resonating ring of a bell in my ears.

As tears rolled down my cheek, I whispered,

"I am too..."

It's Christmas eve but my soul doesn't know it
When I was young I had the spirit
And now Christmas doesn't mean ****

There's a lot I haven't said,
This cold December eve
There's a lot that you don't know,
This cold December Eve
There's a lot of things I wish I hadn't done,
This cold December Eve

There's a lot I want to tell you,
This cold December eve
There's a lot of things I wish you knew,
This cold December eve
There's a lot I still must do,
On this cold Christmas Eve

But you're the only one that I'll hold close,
On this cold Christmas Eve

So Merry Christmas my love,
On this cold December Eve

ES - every year they adorn
our family Christmas tree,
bright baubles 
inscribed with a special 
persons name 
mummy 
daddy 
sis 
and bro 
these wonderful members
of our loving home,

AB - simulating ornaments on
The tree,
And Santa's preparations to sneak
In homes,
Christmas eves hour,
May have been filled with so much joy,
For toys,
And things,
And laughs,
Next year,
along with happiness,
Just like this one,
Will be most grand at its finest.

It's Christmas Eve
and everyone around me is happy and smiling
wondering what they are getting
hoping its something they would like
something sweet
while the only thing i have ever wanted i wont get
I will never get my family back
and the fact i have to spend christmas with these people
aches me
It's Christmas freaking eve
and I'm still not smiling
life freaking hates me

You said,

"Tell me something amazing"

And all I could think of

Was to describe you

Exactly as you are
