About the Poem
Holidays can be a bitter sweet time especially if we are not with the one we love. Yet even if the miles separate us, memories can still keep us close and the best gift we can give anyone is the gift of ourselves.
Merry Christmas, Sweetheart! |
by Judy Burnette |
Merry Christmas, Sweetheart with you is where I want to be Yet it seems our lives are complicated for I am the one not free, Yet the very best present is the gift of one's self I have given you a part of me that has never belonged to anyone else. So we can't be together this Christmas yet our souls are not apart for I have given you the best part of me I have given you my heart. |

This was just the poem I was looking for. It was the first one I saw and it said what I was feeling based on the situation we are both in. Thank you! Merry Christams.

I am having a long distance relationship with someone. At this time a family memeber is sick, and he is there for her taking care of her. We wanted to be together for the Holidays, but that is not to be. But he has given me his heart, which is a very special gift. That is why this poem caught my attention. It is a very nice poem. Thank you for sharing it!

This poem captures everything to those people who are apart from loved ones, it is also poignant for those who have loved and lost, but continue to feel love for those who are now not part of their life. Sad but true.
