Silent Night
~*~
A thought of you
Made me smile
You've been on my mind
For a while
I view a picture
Of you
And my heart races
Out of control
The Holidays are here again
The sand is hot
The air is still
Quite all around.
~~*~~
The stars twinkle
High in the heavens above
Like a Christmas tree
Glowing in the dark
I've never felt so alone
Posted in a foxhole
In desert sands
My Mind
Is a million miles away
I think of toys
I was blest with
When I was a boy.
~~*~~
Now all I wish for Christmas
Is to see another sunrise
All I want, is a little
Peace of mind
But it's hard, you see
I am trying my best
To fight back
This tear
At my eye's edge
Let me say
Within my heart
Good night my dear
I hope and pray
I see you
In The New Year.
~~*~~
I'll try to stay awake
As I hum a few lines
Of Silent Night.
~~~~~*~~~~~
