Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone :') or whatever holiday you celebrate. 

It's not really the presents 
under the tree
but more the warmth and love 
of my family.


Wrapping paper
comes and goes 
but a smile is there
with a content glow
all day long,
it's festive
and perfect
here is where we belong.


Yes, it's cheesy but it's Christmas so hush. 

Going Home

No picture since I don't particularly like the idea of posting a picture of my house on here. Any other wouldn't be right. 


Ready to go home 
not because
I'm in a bad place
I just need the break
to sink back in to the
arms of family
in to routine
which now seems
like such a luxury,
back to the places
and faces
I know so well,
back to home. 

A Winter Night In

Paper snowflakes
and hot cups of tea 
frost clinging 
to the branches of trees 
cosy and warm
while the wind pounds
the glass with it's cold fist
what I want
is just this 
the Christmas spirit sinking in 
while outside all is cold
and I'm just wrapped up,
looking out on the world.
