Array ( [sid] => 146954 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => black christmas [time] => 2008-12-21 04:09:05 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Alone in the darkness
In bed lay a boy
Waiting for saint nick
To bring Christmas joy

Unable to sleep
He got out of bed
And tiptoed down stairs
To wait there instead

Up on the rooftop
He heard a loud sound
Its santa he thought
I musnt be found

Behind the sofa he hid
And peeked out in awe
But what came down the chiminey
wasnt santa at all

He was tall and thin
And robed in all black
And carried a sward
Not a toy filled sack

He called to the boy
Come child come here
The boy did as told
His heart filled with fear

The creature reached out
His hand not but bone
Took hold of the boy
And spoke in a moan

The dark lords had enough
Of this holiday cheer
Sent me to end it
And it ends right here

By morning the world
Will bow unto him
It all starts with you
Your family then

He raised high his sward
A dark death to send
And it came slashing down
To a black Christmas end [comments] => 2 [counter] => 169 [topic] => 13 [informant] => nightwolf [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

But you just destroyed Christmas, so forgiveness may never come LOL
