Weekend Poetry

                This weekend was quite lighthearted, with minor things to do, most of my time was spent in bed. After a long week adjusting to my new classes, I felt very burnt-out, exhausted. I had to learn new names, meet new people, focus on completely different tasks and concepts than I was used to from the previous semester. So I slept, relaxed didn’t do much other than that, but I did leave the house a few times. On Saturday my brother had his friends over so my father and I took it upon ourselves to feed them, we left the house and drove to the nearest Megabite to buy some satisfying pizza for all of us. On Sunday my family proceeded to go to church as we always do every week, but overall I wanted my weekend to be as mundane as possible temporarily throwing away all my priorities.

A break, the shining light always in our eyes

Can’t wait for the time we no longer need to agonize

The beginning of the weekly pause spent in my bed

The clock ticking down the minutes and hours

With each second reminding the time that we dread

Might as well spend some time just eating some garlic bread

A new game of life has just been started

Similar but not the same

Introduced to new players, new pieces, new cards

With the goal of quality that’s the aim

I remained in a slumber, beautiful and charming

Until that of kin allowed his friendship in

A regretful wake was woefully worn

A long ride for sustenance, my conscious was torn

 On the 7th day we left for god’s home

Waiting until one can return to his tome

Nothing left to do, nothing left to complete

A beginning was coming, it was quite bittersweet
