Desperation

What am I to do when I am trapped in a fantasy world?
What am I to do when I am trapped in the real world?
What am I to do when my life is going downhill?
What am I to do when my fantasy hands me an impossible bill?
What am I to do when my work is going bad?
What am I to do when my fantasies make me sad?
What am I to do when my friends don’t support me?
What am I to do when my imagination doesn’t set me free?
What am I to do when I can’t survive?
Then I think I’d rather die than be alive!
