Like fading memories dangling in obscurity

I wondered 'whatever happened to Sunday?

Oblivious to pain and surrounded by delusions of contentment

For joy

This day embodied my soul

But then came Monday

Stealing away in the night

Bringing with it the faint taste of blood upon it's lips

Shallow harlot of the week's beginning

Tainted by the heartache yet to be

Rebuked

Whatever happened to Sunday?

And then without notice

Tuesday presented itself

And proclaimed triumphant misery

Covered with the blood of the innocent

Tarnished with the infidelity of Monday

The battle ensued

Wild dogs howled to the earth the hurt that bellowed within

Snarling at my existence and testing my faith

Succumbing to the inevitability that my week has just begun

And I wondered

Whatever happened to Sunday……….

The day when I smiled.
