It’s a day of gratitude and Thanksgiving
I look around and see the joy in everyone’s hearts… they are laughing & living
The food is cooked, and the table is set
Oh, how in this season my expectations of life have been unmet
My heart is shattered, you’re not here
I keep busy, make jokes, and play games in an attempt to hide my tears
The hours move forward the moment awaits
When we all sit down for our big dinner date
We share our thankfuls, hold hands, say a prayer
Does it hit anyone else in this moment that you are not there
I miss you so dearly
Me…
the empty chair
