Opinion: Holiday Wishes.
My holiday wish this year is simple
As simple as can be
Yet, it still seems to be so complex
But I still have hope that Santa will grant me my holiday wish
Because wishes still come true
Right?
You’re never too big to sit on Santa’s lap
Well, at least that’s what I have always heard
See my holiday wish is for you
Yes, you broken hearted one
The one who’s heart is in a million pieces this year
My holiday wish is for you
I remembered you this is year
And I remembered you last year too
I don’t ever forget you
And this year is no different
My heart still aches for you
My mind still wonders on how I could help mend your broken heart
But I still don’t have a quick fix
So all I can do is ask Santa to grant my holiday wish
I’ve saved my only wish for you
Because I really think, you are special
I really, really do
And I want you to know that you are not forgotten
I hope that you know
You are loved even if you don’t feel it
Even if you don’t see it
You are loved
I hope you know
You are thought about
Even if you don’t feel it
Even if you don’t see it
Just know
I am asking Santa to bring you a piece of mind
And I hope he delivers it on time
Because this year
My holiday wish is for you
