| Melancholy of an Afternoon (1913) by de Chirico |
Late afternoon
is the loneliest time
Sun going down, casting
long shadows
Day not yet over but
dying slowly
Commuter train whistles, carrying
moms, dads, lovers
is the loneliest time
Sun going down, casting
long shadows
Day not yet over but
dying slowly
Commuter train whistles, carrying
moms, dads, lovers
back home
Everything partnered up
in late afternoon
Solitude
has no place here
Loneliness must wait
in late afternoon
Solitude
has no place here
Loneliness must wait

Late afternoon is to the day what Thursday is to the week. Ugh!
lonliness must wait for nights embrace...that is a sad note to end on...just when everyone is heading home... : (
Oh Lolamouse - this was really beautiful!
Very nice. Of course since I work third shift, late afternoon is when my day just really gets rolling good. I'm just stepping up to the plate about the time most normal people are leaving the stands.
such a sad notion beautifully expressed. great post
Loneliness must wait for the nights embrace...sad and yet so lovely.
lonely poignant piece. Kinda reminded me of that song by The Band 'don't leave me alone in the twilight, cos twilight is the loneliest time of day'. Nice write. Laughed hard at your header... hehe

I used to detest Fridays.. watching others partner up for weekends together.. I know these emotions well.
sad poem, but well done..
