Days of the Week

Monday

The beginning of a horrible week

The day when skies are gray

Everyone's miserable

And my heart, waiting to see what's next

Tuesday

The day after Monday

The day when the blade whispers my name

It knows this day, I will not be triumphant

Wednesday

The middle of the week

I stop mid thought

Two loved ones are fighting

And I'm caught in the middle

Thursday

The day after wednesday

When my arms are beat up 

My head close to my pillow

Gun in hand

Friday

The day before Saturday

I'm standing in front of the mirror

Hair all cut, blood in the sink

It's the day that whispers

"You can always try again next week. It'll get better."

Saturday

The day when everything is resolved

I'm sitting in the den

Listening, laughing

Smiling, blade tucked away in my pocket

Sunday

The day when everything starts over
