What’s the point in getting out of bed today?

There’s nothing in this day worth greeting

Storm clouds persist despite the sunshine

drowning me in apathy

a life worth living eludes me still

despite all my best efforts

so why waste the time and energy?

It’s amazing how quick the outlook can change

just a week or so ago it all looked bright

despite the rain

and now here I am

ready to hide from everything

This bed is all that’s left for me

that feels warm and welcoming

so why not crawl inside

and let everything else go?
