A waking dream
A. lost my job got no money left to pay,
B. drowning in a sea of panic and worry,
A. seems like the clouds are heavy and grey,
B. bang on the door calling out to hurry,
C. a figure of darkness a man dressed in black,
D. tells me something that shakes me to the core,
C. boxes are ready to leave in a stack,
D. got to keep going heading to the door,
E. hope it can make a change and start anew,
F. my phone is ringing I want to ignore,
E. telling me I should answer so I do,
F. a job offer will help more than before,
G. after tough times hope is a waking dream,
G. a nightmare what a struggle it has been
