Monday was not a good day
and we don’t have great hopes for Tuesday, to be honest
Melancholy
Such a pretty name
Mellifluous and soft
A kitten that climbs on your shoulder and nips your ear to draw blood
A companion who keeps you company when you feel alone
Despair
Leaps on you from the ceiling
Sinks its claws in your aching back
Drives its fangs into your tired neck as you
Howl
So echoes bounce into the corners of the empty house
Howl
While the floor hits your shoulders
Howl
While you miss her so much
Howl
So much to do
Howl
So much needs done
Howl
Because it’s not fair it’s not fair it’s not fair
Howl into the silence
It’s alright
She needs to be where she is
It’s alright
You’ll see her tomorrow morning
It’s alright
Things need done here
It’s alright
You know she loves you always will
It’s alright
Things will be better
Things will be better
Things. Will. Be. Better.
