Weekend

cram it all in,
keep your head down,
and race the clock to get ahead.
your whole world holds its breath
in antcipation of a long weekend.

don't ask any questions,
they'll just open confusion's door.
5 pm is the goal.
sooner is better, later is not an option.
you have plans and hopes for this weekend.

the work week sucks you dry.
the light dims behind your eyes
you need down time to unwind,
to live your passions,
and regnite the light inside.

you give more then you have.
it's time to take some back.
kick back and relax,
let the world spin without you for a minute.
nothing will explode if you don't open your e-mail.
the weekend is here
and it doesn't last forever.

no one expect more from you then you do.
cut yourself some slack.
life is brief and eternity is endless.
pick and choose your moments
and keep the weekend for yourself.
you've earned it so enjoy it!

Monday Blues

monday is around the bend;
it has snuck up on me again.
friday was just here,
but now it feels like yester year.
saturday was a blur.
sunday disappeared into thin air.
oh, why do these weekends go by so quickly?
when all i want is to say home on Monday claiming i'm sickly!
