Christmas is a good time
for mending the heart
by leaving the past behind
and embracing a new start;
a time to take the grudges
that you'd like to pay
and leave them to
the bygone days;
a time to gather disappointment
and let it drift away
and find healing in the miracle
of Christmas day.
Life is too short to cling to
tears of the past, my friend.
Let yesterday's troubles go
so that your heart can mend.
