Merry Christmas, why when I feel like I am dying inside,
Why should I feel happy when nothing is right,
Why should I smile when I don't feel happy tonight,
Why do I fight every day of my life?
Because I won the fight and scars don't define me,
Because I am strong but my weakness is not a flaw,
Because I am loved and needed by many,
Because I will not give in to whatever faces me.
In 2015, on December 27th I nearly took a step into heaven,
Taken to ICU for three weeks I did stay,
Many times, with my life I did pay,
But I clung on with the love of my family and will.
This time of the year really does suck,
Hopefully, this year will be great with a little luck,
Maybe this year the trend I will buck,
Even if my brain in that time is stuck.
