Waking Up
Which are you? - Some inspiration and help
Waking up
Happiness a close distant friend I once knew so well
Sadness, a constant companion that eats at my soul
Why start the day
Days become weeks become months become nothing
No point getting ready, when nothing is something
Drown the sorrow
Start again tomorrow
Try to move forward, dull out all the pain
Alcohol and porn, don't wash away the stain
Always stay the same
What a bloody shame

Waking up
Happiness may be eluding me for now, but that's okay
Sadness, is the companion I need to work with today
I'll try to get up
Break up the monotony, fill my time with self-care
Try and have a shower or bath, wash my body and hair
Sit in all the sorrow
I'll be better tomorrow
Make plans, to work through the pain
Sleep, water, and walk down the lane?
Time for a change
Goals to arrange
