The Mess

Has always been my name for this time of year, from time spent working retail and from how certain statistics seem to skyrocket

“The Mess”

 

The Mess

Rears its ugly ahead,

Always there to remind you of

Your sorrow.

This is no season for the ones

Who dwell in loneliness and

Broken hearts.

Well, I suppose it is one way to call the holidays! Yes.. it is the hardest time of year to be alone..
But if you look, no one is truly alone... There is always someone about... a friend, family member...
The heart maybe lonely... and yes the statistics are not funny... but it takes a little will to open up the eyes and look... You usually find a little love... and then it is not so lonely. :)

An interesting piece! It is a good write... and love the title along with the pic! :)

Well done! I liked where your muse took you with this one.
A very difficult time of the year for many people, for many
various reasons, sadly.
