Joy This Year

Will there be joy this year
as we celebrate the birth of our Lord?
The things I want this year
can't be bought, boxed or wrapped.
Will the cycle of abuse and hate end this year
or will I ask this question again?
I look at the progress made this year
it seems I've taken one step forward and five back.
Christmas will just be another day this year
all the magic an excitement died years ago.
Will we see the return of the King this year
and will there be joy?
