Merry Christmas
I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday with their families or friends, whatever your choice companions are for this time of the year.
A cold Eve in Southern California and
I can no longer attempt
to hide the overall feeling of
loneliness.
The usual white noise
of vehicles upon the roads
is faint and
no matter the fuzzy fleece socks
or layers of clothing
there is a chill
around me
not singularly from the cool air.

There’s only so much I can do to keep my mind from recognizing that I am alone, on a day when so many others have their…others with them. The usual online chatting and phone calls are at a minimum and I realize how much of myself desires companionship, the sharing of a festive time. A shared smile, laughter, snuggles…all nonexistent as of tonight.
I am not sad, I am happy, I can smile and do so, but I am lonely.

You are never truly alone.

Merry Christmas Alicia! Thanks for the comment on my blog! Don’t feel too bad. I am alone this Holiday too. I just got done eating a frozen dinner, and watching a bad movie. Ah, the joys of the Holidays! I hope that even though you are alone, you have a good day!

I am with too many people and long to be alone right now. For the last 8 days it’s been people, people, people. I would love to come sit with you and just ‘be’. I can’t wait to get home to MY couch, MY tv, MY bed, MY kitchen, and NO extra people everywhere.
I’m sorry you’re feeling alone. I wish I could come be with you now. Maybe I can skidattle out to you for a weekend in the near future.
Talk to you soon!
