What's the Point?

I wake up,
the alarm blaring announcing
another day has began.
I clumsily reach for it to end the
warning that the day
has began.
I slowly wake up realizing I
must get up.
I stumble to the bathroom,
tripping on that damn basket
full of the dirty clothes I have
failed to clean.
I curse to myself as I climb into
the shower,
finding that once agian I
forgot to pay the heat.
The cold water splashing me and
sending chills up my spine.
I get out of the shower
and wrap myself in a towel,
goosebumps attacking my body.
I trip again on the way back to
the bedroom,
that damn basket again.
I collaspe back in bed
trying to figure out,
what's the point?
