Bad Day

Jumbled dreams Delayed start Green light, go! Early rush, fresh Sunny day and a stroke of luck Routine maintained and broken Return and pause, then Shattered expectations Persistence ground into crumbs Obligatory toil Conceding tolerance, now A new journey to improve Disappointment of falling short Corrective suggestion spurned Eyes blur and lids droop Anger and disdain, now Return to leave again Welcomed sustenance and companionship Consider imminent possibilities Confident arrival, then Hopes extinguished Joys of the day forgotten Only failure and disappointment No justification Only bleak exhaustion Disenchanted return Bury my unshed tears, and Hope for a better tomorrow
