You fooled me so well I thought I was going to make it out this year without the blues. A heart's betrayal disguised as someone else's love. Boo for Christmas carols that stick in my head like chewed gum on and innocent shoe. Damn those glistening silver bells! All I see in them are my lonely eyes looking back at me. I want to bubble up with the excitement of uniting with my family and sharing loving heartfelt moments. But instead I sit and watch alone as others participate in the annual traditions. Instead of a bell jar I am stuck in a fucking snow globe of gloom.
Is this self pity or self realization? I am too tired to tell at the moment. I will watch the season pass and not let down my guard. Soon the glitter and peppermint mochas will be gone and things will return to the inevitable norm. Until then my friends I will dust off the residual glitter and drink my coffee black with honey and shout BAH HUMBUG! and hope I get visited by at least one ghost(you know who you are.)
;) xoxo
