Christmas is not my favorite time of year Hauntings of past childhood trauma Remembering days gone by I want to go to sleep until Jan. 1 Sometimes I'm okay at this time of year Trauma took my joy away for Christmas Maybe next year will be better All of my life I curl into a ball  Sadness haunts me and my memoris Author Notes I do not like this time of year. Childhood trauma happened on Christmas day when I was 9 or 10. Perhaps I will write an essay one day. I did enter the contest for sacrifice your autobiography. It's raw and tells the trauma and how my life spiraled out of control. Thanks for the read even though it's depressing.
