Holidays
A time of joy but a place that holds most loneliness and solitude. New Years,a clap for celebration for a new year that brings new people in your life and dissipates of the people that couldn't join your race any further. February 14th,a national day that is bound and praised to declare your love when you should show it that day and the other 364 days left of the year.Fastforwarding to the following months that falls with the leaves.Thanksgiving that is a time of grace and a heart full of thankfulness yet where a mother's cooking or a father's presence are both diminished.A week before Christmas Eve is when the streets are packed full of family and friends.Lights are hung and trees are cut to fulfill family traditions.Gifts wrapped to put under the tree and gatherings are taken place.Under the moonlight of the crisp clear night,there's someone watching out a window and flashbacks and old letters are reopened.A moment of vulnerability and tears fall onto the open letter and phones are held in hands,hesitant to type or dial numbers. A new year is approaching and people chant on the eve before the new year and again,another cycle is completed.
