Monday morning blues

Another Monday morning 

Readying for work,

Not quite light yet

 Put on my trousers, tie and shirt.

Going to give them ten hours

Of my precious life,

Same old daily routine

More pressure and more strife,

Just to earn enough to cover

All of the bills,

Yet it’s getting harder just to do that

And I have had my fill,

And I want more.

More than this from life,

And though I struggle and I fight,

With these bonds of which I am tied 

I just want more,

I really need more to fill my soul.

Another Monday morning 

Same old drudge,

Just getting on with it

There is not much,

Else that I can hope for

But I keep my head high,

Hoping that maybe one day

I can achieve a better life,

Because I want more,

Is that too much to ask

I just want more,

I really need more to fill my soul

Before this life goes.

    That is such a difficult situation to be in. I am sure each one of us has felt this way some time or another in life…but keep knitting…keep finding things you’d like to do and keep trying new things…I’m sure something will work in your favour! 🙂
