It seems I've read somewhere that during the Christmas season the suicide rate is up because people feeling depressed and helpless. Thank you for sharing this poem with us. I see it as a reminder to check on our friends, they may not be all right.

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
A thoughtful and poignant Poesque verse resonating for many for whom Christmas brings little to no joy. The imagery is, of course, beautifully apt; I love "darkness clings to me." Should the last line read (as) a merry-less-end-of-year or (in this) merry-less-end-of-year? Thamks for sharing, Gypsy. Debbie

Depression takes many forms, including SAD. Been there before, but was able to leave it behind. For many it is quite more difficult, and this is tge condition tgat tgat poems shows. It is well presented and verses. Travel to Texas in a few hours to visit our son.

Another fine poem, Gypsy......I have to admit, I relate to this poem more than I should, Christmas isn't my favorite time of year, much to my Mom's dismay, she loves it

That would be a terrible happening, that one didn't see the lights and the colour of Christmas, but rather everything lacked colour, like dark or colourless, well done, blessings Roy

You're so right about that. This can be one of the most difficult times of the year for many people, especially those who have lost loved ones and the holidays are just not the same. Well done message to help us remember those who find it "merry-less".
