Holiday Sadness

time of year
time of good cheer
tis the season
of laughter
and joy
it's not for all

something is
missing
it's not for all

shorter days
longer nights
time of sadness
others around
happy
bustling
presents to buy
gifts to give
it's not for all

sense of loss
clouds the view
why me
it's not for all

most wonderful time
of the year
said in
a song
it's not for all

why not me

It is certainly that time of year where not everyone is part of the "festive" feel. It is more often a time of complete loneliness.

I often get in a down mood for the holidays as everyone strives for perfection for one or two days out of the year.
I wrote this after another blogger said she was reposting some stuff so her sadness didn't show up in her writing.

I understood.

Thanks for stopping by Miss Twaddle!
