It's that time of year again, hope you get everything want, but mostly what you need.
Xmas Wrap

Have you ever got a present?
So extravagantly wrapped
That when you saw it sitting there
Underneath the tree
You thought, ‘It’s got my name on?’
So precise and so exact
Surely there is some mistake
Could it really be for me?
With hands and digits shaking
You tear the foil clean
So it can be resealed
When reality unveils
The mistake of which you’re making
Stripping someone else’s dream
And the gift, it is revealed
And neither disappoints or fails
A present tailor made for you
A past and future born
Everything you wanted
And what you didn’t think you’d need
It’s a shame I can’t wrap presents too
My wrapping papers torn
I hope its good enough for you
You deserve the best indeed
