Exceptional
This work has reached the exceptional level
A look inside
His Promise by justafan



The hourglass has been turned
As the sand runs quickly through it
He knows

His "Monday's coming"

On the outside
He looks like he has it
All together

He works every day
Takes care of those close to him
Smiles and laughs
Appropriately


BUT

On the inside
The pain of being used and cheated on
Have left him
Scarred, bitter and afraid to
Love or trust again





Day after day
Night after night
Those memories
Torture him
 

No one sees the tears
The heartache
The weariness he carries inside

So
 
He made a promise
To himself  
Make his life one of peace and comfort
Never to allow anyone to steal his joy

He calls his promise

Monday


The hourglass has been turned
As the sand runs quickly through it
He knows
His "Monday's coming"
