My Dog's Ashes Sit Next to the Christmas Tree

This small collection of poems is a metaphorical note on winter and the theme of loneliness that grows during the colder time of the year. Something I realized, while looking at my dogs ashes next to where the Christmas tree goes, is that those isolating emotions tend to be much more real to me during the holidays. All of the biggest emotional events that took place in my life happened in December and/or the winter time all together. The title of the collection is a metaphor for my personal outlook on the holidays, and how I still find a darkness in something I should be jovial about.
