Monday was her name
Monday was her name
She would've encompassed, the smiles and cries
With the summary, of many week’s gone bye,
Her predecessor is the Sunday when I decide.
To let Monday be the beginning
of a better life.
Trust is a part Monday’s lies.
But Sunday is when the truth can survive.
Believing in thyself is always compromise.
A good night sleep will give you the direction
you need to find

"This is soft and quiet. An "in the moment" reflection. So many deep thoughts, but a universal, simple affirmation. May I suggest making the sentences even in length? It would make the poem a bit easier for the reader to…" -
