• I wish I had
    The perfect Christmas,
    One with a father,
    Mother, sisters,
    Brothers, grandparents,
    Aunts, uncles,
    a big happy family.
    Just like a story.
    I wish for it every year,
    but my wish never comes true.
    I get nothing.
    Nothing at all.
    I wish my dad
    Would love my mom,
    And she would let him
    Back in the house.
    That'll never happen.
    Instead, I get
    Two Christmases.
    Unfair?
    Well, I guess,
    That it is kind of like
    A perfect Christmas,
    I see my dad,
    Mom, brothers,
    Sisters, grandparents,
    Aunts, Uncles,
    Everyone.
    A big, happy, separated family.
