"I know how it feels to be completely alone and helpless, and the last thing you want to hear in that situation is, 'It's going to be OK. ' The only thing that seems to really help is that someone else who has felt that low expressing those feelings"

Sleepy Monday eyes rest on tired faces.
-Hey, don't say rest! I'm tired.
Sleepy Monday eyes lie on tired faces.
-Don't say lie, I'm too sleepy.
Sleepy Monday eyes painted on tired faces.
-Painted, now that's better.
Sleepy Monday eyes-- Okay, who are you?
-I'm the Sleepy Monday eyes.
Sleepy Monday eyes stare up at the moon.
-That they do.

I wanted this piece to have an internal conversation. It illustrates how tired Mondays are.
