The value of a Christmas gift to people who aren't family

I want to get you a gift

for Christmas

because

I want you to know that you're special to me.

And it really is that simple -

but I don't know what to get you

The age-old dilemma

something cute?

maybe...

something silly?

maybe...

something meaningful?

maybe...

All I have are maybes and goals with no perfect gift in sight

that will fulfill my impossible requirements.

And so I ask you 

what do you want?

And of course you don't know

I don't know either!

There has to be some sort of wanting... bias... right?

The impossibility of a perfect gift for someone who means so much is nearly overwhelming.

What to get, what to get...

    I'm never letting go of you

    it's too late

     

    there's special love I've never felt

    and I'm feeling it

    secure in your arms

    happy with your hand in mine and our faces pressed together

    I used to curse the snow

    used to fight every tradition about snow days

    in denial

    I would wake up early and get ready like I could

    prevent it from happening

    well the snow still fell

    the roads still closed

  • Fire and roses

    I was made of fire 

    before the roses blessed me

    I was made impure 

    before purity chose me like

    I was some kind of tortured angel

    I used to be bad

    the worst
