Mirth and Misery
Mirth and Misery

Sometimes I’m weary and despairing.
Sometimes I’m full of glee and merriment.
So, this undulating attitude of mine
Is well worthy of a social experiment.

If I stop seeing certain friends of mine
Will it modify my well-being?
Maybe they’re the cause of my problem.
I’ll stay alone to prevent disagreeing.

However, could this be all to do with money?
Is the date of payday the time of mirth?
Perhaps then, three weeks later
There’s a downturn in my self-worth.

However, I think everyone is like this.
I’m just an ordinary up and down kind of guy.
I’m no different from Joe public at all.
One minute I’m flat and the next I am high.
