Troubled

When the world around you
Is ready to crumble and fall,
You no longer find solutions
Decide to give up on it all.

Grow tired of the working
Never is there enough pay,
You try the best you can
Still bills pile up each day.

A break through finally comes
Its much like a dream,
Just where did this come from
Fell from the sky it may seem.

All this and much more
Is just the life we live,
Becoming what we make it
Fight or just in we can give.

Very nicely done. Message conveyed nicely. Continue to share and let your feelings flow. This is your work you don't have to please everyone.
