Piggie Toes

I wear very uncomfortable steel-toed boots all night long,
during the daylight hours, my feet cool in the soft grass at home...
I desperately need to find a nice, seated office job.

It looks good to me. The lines can be anywhere from 14 to 16 syllables in length, and I see all three of them have 15 syllables. Your write is also very descriptive as the third line complements the first two lines.
