This Sunday Night

Tristan Robert Lange

What can one ever do?
I am one to see things through,
But I am weary
On this dreary
Sunday night.
 
What can one ever be?
I am one who needs to be free,
But I am so dreary
On this weathered and weary
Sunday night.
 
What can one ever say?
I’ll not budge who I am today,
But I am so very weary
Of things being so damned dreary
On this Sunday night.

    Ooh does not wike dreary nights? Winter must be a cruel drag. I mean, I struggle every January anyway, but it's only November and you's lamenting its "dreary" sight. I wishes you success in charming off its nastiness. Lovely and beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

      It’s the time change and the perpetual darkness thereafter. Shortened daylight, longer darkness. Bad combo for me, especially since I have MDD and GAD…on top of that…SAD. Acronym soup! 😂😢 Anyway, thank you for reading and commenting! Always appreciated, friend!

      the answer is- do something everyday that makes you happy...then you have something to look forward to and It makes facing the next day a bit more bearable

      • Tristan Robert Lange

        Indeed. That’s all one can do. Thank you so much for reading and commenting. Always appreciated. 🙏❤️

        The poem speaks to exhaustion not of the physical type, but of the emotional a poem with some depressing overtones

          Time change can bring
          this melancholy into flight! 😢
          More darkness comes,
          when there's less light! 🕯️

          My pleasure to read indeed! 👍 👍
          Best regards ✌️ peace. Thad

            It might help if we think - there's only a few weeks to go, the nit starts getting lighter again.

              Oh…I am counting the days, which, ironically, is basically a Christmas countdown! And there’s that dang anagram again 🎅😱😂 Thank you so much for reading and commenting, friend.

              i really hope the dreary mood passes - time really drags and it's a lamentable time indeed...

                  I so get this Tristan .. as a general rule, Sunday nights in November rank among the top four of my overall least favourite nights of the year .. I tend to get a bit of a downer in November and the end of a weekend usually heralds another busy week .. Neville
