Monday Morning

One of my favorite mondays this year

Sunflowers, bright against lilac

Smiles hidden under protective masks 

Joy spreading on an eve of day of love

Such joy...

Depleting like petals crumbling

Energy seeped out of our stems, pouring

Like water, like blood 

Over notebooks and assignments that never end

Yet friends make up for it

Wide eyes and wider smiles

Secrets and text messages shared

Under food crumbs and sweets 

Walking past the empty hallways

And beeping elevators

Realizing it is only, you 

And the pressuring calmness of the real world keeping you company 

Yet despite 

The never ending lectures of life 

Or questions about love and boys 

Or persistent wants to stay awake 

It is only Monday

And I would rather feel such 

Tiredness

Than to feel medically numb to the world

It reminds me of pain

Of life 

Of suffering

Of breathing 

Breathing in sunflowers

Bright against lilac

Bright smiles and laughs of friends

On Monday morning

Almost Monday...

Before it's always...

SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY!!!
