Feeling Disenchanted

I'm bored and there's relief from it that's just the way I feel my eyes are addle I admit a plight I won't conceal Listlessness is visible this is the reason why this town's a mirrored tinsel with a platinum color dye You're jaded and mishandled and your insights all but bleak your voice is clearly stifled I tune it out each time you speak Maybe I need to leave the suburbs with lawns of fake green hues oblivious to rounded curbs I dream of urban views

Such a smooth read, the flow and rhyme are perfect, but a sad read as it conveys the need for change or more for the subject. Wonderfully written though! Michael

Very original view of your world...all I have around me here is forest, mountains and rivers..but sometimes I really dream of the city! sigh...mixing it up sometimes is good for the soul. Well written, Ivy. :) Kristin
