December Begins

December begins like it does again and again,
Leaving behind November and then,
Before you know it's Christmas at last,
Then you realize a whole year's past.

December begins like it does each year,
With anticipation of holiday cheer,
Quickly it passes it wont last.
Once again a full year's past.

December begins though we try to pretend,
That this isn't happening all over again.
Holidays pass before they begin.
Faster the world continues to spin.

December begins it's already here.
Has it really been a whole year?
We should surrender now and give in.
Eventually always Time will win.
