Thanksgiving Sorrow

Thanksgiving is a time of happiness But for some it brings tears to the eye For it brings sorrow and heartache Grieving for loved ones who have died The holidays become so hard Seeing the smiles on everyone's face When all you want to do is cry And be alone in a small dark place. It is a time of reminiscing Of all of their childhood years And realizing what all could have been Which just sends us into tears. It's hard to really celebrate When your heart is broken and torn So, most of us have smiling masks That most of us have worn To get through these Holidays Without the ones we love And hope that they are looking down And sending us their love. 11/24/2021
