It is so sad when childhood memories or bad adult relationships cause a person to hid such hurt and to mistrust and doubt love. It is good that he has decided to let it all be in the past and return to true life and try again.
Keep writing and stay healthy.

Comment from SimianSavant
I'm bookmarking this for the song you shared. Somehow I've never heard it before, and it's a good one.
Visually you set this up very nicely. The hourglass image is awesome.
I hesitantly offer two suggestions:
-consider not capitalizing the beginnings of lines by default. This is a stylistic decision for sure, and I think it might add fluidity to some of your text. You could still capitalize proper nouns etc. It's a more modern look, but if the idea makes you cringe, pay it no heed.
-consider omitting the middle instance of "the hourglass has been turned", in order to bookend your piece, and let it breathe.
What I need is a three-day hourglass that tells me how much time I have before the workweek starts again!
Nice work. Best,
Harambe

Comment from scongrove
Aww... just loved this! It deserved a six. But still, all out. :(
This poem kinda feels like me. I know how it feels not to trust after being jaded so many times. You're always wondering if it's going to happen again.
I love the video you added. Clever!
Thanks for sharing. It is really heartfelt.
Sincerely,
Shana :)

Comment from Jesse James Doty
This is an interesting piece and I am not sure what to make of it. His Monday's coming...what exactly is this supposed to mean? I 'get' that he has been burned a time or two but haven't we all? What is special about him that you wrote a poem for him? I love the presentation with its different color schemes throughout the poem form. And I have always loved the Mama's and the Papa's music and lyrics as well as their stage presence. I just don't understand the significance of the song Monday, Monday.
If you don't mind, I would like a clarification for this one, please.
Have a great weekend!
Jesse

This is a great friend of mine and it was written with him in mind. He calls his retirement from "JohnQ public" as his Monday. No worries with residual income.
The song choice was simply because of the word "Monday. Nothing sinister just one man?s look at life after working all his life.
Thank you for your review

Comment from Ric Myworld
"Monday's coming," good or bad. So we had all better get ready and start counting the days, living each one to the fullest, until the payback calendar reads Monday. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Begin Again
Good one, Missy
Plant that seed deep inside the mind and heart and let it blossom. Our world tends to give us a field of weeds, but if we continue to nurture the good thoughts we can clear the weeds and our lives.

We do dread certain dates in our calendar, an appointment or a meeting we fear and this anticipation of fear is often worse than the event itself, a poignant write, love Dolly x
