No, Let Me Explain
I step into the outside world and I say
"oh yes, it feels like Christmas"
And by "feels like Christmas"
I do not mean "cold"
If I tell you it feels like Chirstmas,
I am feeling what some might call
Pure Happiness
If I tell you it feels like Christmas
The moment I stepped outside
I felt the brisk air
I did not feel it biting at my cheeks
Nor did I have the urge to run back inside
No
I felt the air surround me in a blanket of soft frigid air
If I tell you it feels like Chirstmas
From the moment I had left the building
My mind was filled of memories
Memories of my mother
Dancing around the kitchen
Listening to the same Christmas jingle for the second hour in a row
Memories of my brother laying in the snow
Trying to see exactly where Santas reindeer had landed the night before
If I tell you it feels like Christmas
With each step I take
I am feeling a sense of peace
That cannot be explained
Cannot be achieved in any other way
And is what I wish even my worst enemies to feel
If I tell you it feels like Christmas
I want you to look at me in the eyes
Because I want you to see what unadulterated joy is.
