Christmas, So Cold


I can recall Christmases
When I was small
The lights, the gifts, the tree
Y’all gave to me
Holidays back then were warm bright
Now I can’t live of whats been
Nothing seems to be right anymore
Since you put a storm in my head
Ya made me fatherless, You were gone
Like you were dead
Whatever happened to, “I was the best”?

(Refrain)
Christmas, So Cold
All the more as I get old
Christmas, alone
Without a family to call my own
Not how it use to be
Not how it suppose to be
Christmas, this cold
Being so alone

Jingle hell! Jingle hell!

My mama was no better
Turned me into a latch-key kid
Been on my own since I was ten
Whatch ya expect?
Crazy ole white bitch cryin yer name all da time
Till one day she got over you
She married a redneck and lost her mind
I was on my own by that time
At the mercy of a fat ass stepper
Tellin me his rules while takin over my crib
What a fuckin heifer while Mama looked the other way

(Refrain)

Got my friends ya know
We’re all tight but
They still got their own
Families on the holidays
Yer not blood, But yer all I had
Now I got nothing
Don’t ya think dats sad?

(Refrain)

Got my friends ya know
We’re all tight but
They still got their own
Families on the holidays
Yer not blood, But yer all I had
Now I got nothing
Don’t ya think dats sad?
Papa you say yer here to stay
I don’t know what dat means
Yer too late, I’m Big Nate
And Mama so long as you don’t ditch that redneck bitch
We can never see eye to eye
Guess I was yer son on loan
Don’t ya bother reachin me on da phone

Refrain)

I heard theres a special place
Believe me, It’ll be a turtle’s pace
For me to arrive
If it’s a place in my head
If it’s a space in my heart
I wonder why should I start
Ta let go of da past
But forgiveness they say it lasts
But dats a long road
And I got my friends
We’re all tight but
Yes they got their own

(Refrain)

Merry Christ – mas
Whatever happened to living well?

Is There Nothing More?

Dinner is on the wall Children crying, infant screaming Fear freezes her when he calls Between them there is silence peeling Its the way they only know Its how love they struggle to show He knows nothing more She can’t bear the blood and sores She understands she must flea But how else can she Be? _______________ Copyright © 2020 HeardWords America

His Love for Her

Don't leave me here!  Don't you leave me here this way!  What will all my friends say? Who was it that carried me on the bier? Well, will you pray for me? Or can't you wait to see another man, if only you can?  Life with you was never,  the kind I wanted.  You called me "friend" That was after you put an end to our coupling. That was after you had my ring  cut off your finger. I can hear you singing after that. You had your own definition for being a swinger. A woman, free and unattached. Since then we've never been intimate. No matter the many times I had to wait. You would love me  Only by cleaning and laundrying for me. Still you'd never give me a bath. We had a life together you never let last. Don't leave me here!  Don't you leave me here this way!  What will all my friends say?     "She buried him, with his love for her.      She's not so demur."  _________ copyright ©️ 2023 SDKilmer, LLC All Rights Reserved www SDKi

Adoptee Chameleon

I love the way you move. All swank and cool. I'm a dank fool canvas. I'd like to be you. Let's see who, I can be. I love the way you speak. All soft and sexy. Everything 'bout you is neat. I'm just an entity incomplete. I'd like to be you. Let's see who, I can be. Adoptee chameleon Born to be Apparently, a utilitarian personality. Adoptee chameleon. Born to be Nothing much to see, apparently. Nobody said it would be like thees. All my own history. All blood relatives. I'm a severed twig of my family trees. They said the tree caught fire. From which they saved me. What bald liars! They took me on. An adoptee chameleon. Gill or Jillian? No one could tell. All adoptees seem to be a chameleon. How I love your body. Oh how I love your manners. Does it really matter That I want to be like you? Got nothing else to inform me. So let's see, who I am. If I can break free from Being an Adoptee Chameleon Of different colors. With different lovers. To
