Christmas Alone: To My Mom
Lights are on the tree
Some presents already underneath
But the one thing I want
I can never receive
Cursed to look like her reflection
But I will not have the same fate
Every Christmas without her
Will never be perfection
Do you want to, you know.. find her..?
Everyone asks me this
I've known the answer since birth
But I feel like a worthless cur
I always miss the one I mirror
Christmas, and birthdays are the worst
But these blue eyes rimmed with tears
Could never be clearer
Just to have my mom by my side
Would make the scars disappear
But I know it probably wont happen
So every year I hide
I put on a smile for the world
Throw in a few uncertain laughs
But deep inside
I'm just a little girl
So another Christmas alone
Another day wasted
Don't worry about me mom,
Your baby girl still wishes you would come home
