I hate the drudgery of my working day,
Most people I know are the same,
Unfortunately it's the modern way,
Wanting it easy and searching for fame,
Why should life be this hard,
So thoughtless and uncaring,
Shouldn't always be on my guard,
Wary of other people staring,
At times like this when I'm feeling down,
Depression sets in to my mind,
No smile on my face, just a scowl or a frown,
I could do without all of mankind,
Then I think about people on other parts of earth,
And the only life they've ever had,
Consist of famine, war and death,
And I realise that mine ain't that bad.

I'll probably never grow up and I'll definitely keep making mistakes in life. So I may as well enjoy it!
