Sun isn't always fun

Sunshine, oh how I've missed thee
but why come and torment me
when I can't enjoy your company?

Peaking through an half open blind
I am extremely certain that I'll find
you'll suffocate my delicate mind....

Even the sun's against me today,
I wonder how life turned this way;
loneliness adds to my utter dismay.

I hear the neighbours chattering,
little voices innocently nattering
and barbeques begin clattering.

The smell of cigars making me gag
desperately trying not to lose my rag
for today, I begin to considerably lag.

I can't lift my head but cannot sleep -
it's too painful and I'm so tired, I weep
'one look outside' says brain, 'a little peep'

but I cannot move, frozen in a cold spot,
I need to leave my bed or I'll lose the plot.
