Say You Love Me

The holidays and other special days have a way of magnifying the aloneness I feel. It’s hard to be surrounded by people who have misunderstood and judged me but I’m supposed to be joyful and put on a good face while I’m suffering inside. I fight so many battles on the daily and find it best to stay away from those who aren’t genuine. It’s exhausting. I’d prefer to actually be alone than be surrounded by fake love and meaningless conversations.
