The Holidays Are For Those Not Alone

THE HOLIDAYS ARE FOR THOSE NOT ALONE

The holidays are for those not alone-
For the alone the holidays rub in the pain
Everyone else has someone who cares-

For the alone
There is no one and nothing-
Only greater envy and sadness and sense of loss-

For the alone
There are no holidays
Only special days of pain and more hurt.
