Why am still I sad?

faith-barron Poems

Today was meant for happiness for giving and remembrance time spent with the people you love your family. Time to cook and bake sing songs and share news get out the old photo albums laugh together. A day when things are thrown away past is the past and smiles are wide snowflakes snow globe around the house church bells ring. Its supposed to be warm comfortable the music is soft candles burn and glow my dog sleeps. Yet, I can't stay there I can't look at their faces I seclude myself alone. It hurts to be here where I haven't been and try to pretend that its nice. I'm not happy here but today is for the present today is for giving thanks today is about smiles. The image here is but a skeleton of me the person that everyone remembers wishes was still here. Happy Thanksgiving.
