Ramblings From the Dark

The stress of life sometimes makes me quite sad
and I just want to curl up in my bed.
It isn't that my life is really bad,
it's just something that happens in my head.

I sit for hours tapping at this thing
while trying to satisy all the ones
who paid me to ensure that I'm working,
and unable to see the light of the sun.

I dare not take a moment of my time
and try to do anything that I like,
since every time I do I always find
that disaster has been waiting to strike.

I'm sad and frightened that I'll end up broke.
Oh, why don't I feel like I have some hope?
