Blue Christmas

It's a season of celebration, a season of joy. Why do I think only of death?


Four detonated bombs so far. Over 40 killed.


I don't want to die. No not yet.
I don't want my family to die. No not yet, not ever! Not till they are 100 years old each.
I don't want to lose my friends or anyone I ever cared for or ever met or added meaning to my life. Not until they are at least 90 years old
.


I don't want to die before I find true lasting love.
I don't want to die before I am married to my true love.
I don't want to die before I have awesome married-people's love-making.
I don't want to die before I have my 3 kids. (twins inclusive)
I don't want to die before I accomplish all my career dreams.
I don't want to die before I bring up my family.
I don't want to die before all I have to do is give advice based on age-old experience.
I don't want to die before I am 84years old.
Then, I could sleep in my true love's arms and die.








Amen.

  2. ...from ur ended relationship...to your writer's block...to the 'earth-worm in his trousers' and and to pushing out a 5kg baby...to the 'are u ok' day...and to the blue Christmas....u make a gud writer. Spontaneity is the name of the game...loose that and your write-ups get boring.

    ...with 4posts in 2010....8 in 2011...I bet a million dollars you're gonna have @ least 16posts in 2012 *winks*

  3. It should have been titled Black Christmas, or 'Blue' with the quotation marks.
    Interesting write up.

  9. you didn‘t have a say or a choice when you came to this world and you don‘t a say how you die.you can hope and pray to influence your future but directing it is not in your hands.sometimes i gaze at the stars and try to consider the vastness of the universe.i realise how insignificant i am in the big picture then thank God that he is there for me.

  12. We die when we have fought a good fight and finished our own race. Some people are Usain Bolts, and others are Gabresellasies...if u are a Bolt, u ar useless after 200 metres...no need to remain on the tracks...
