The grass is ALWAYS greener.

You look across the future
Green blossomy hills do lie
Your only disconnection from them
Is that there on the other side.
The candy and cakes and beauty
The laughter smiles the fun
The friendly faces and blue sky
The glowing moon and sparkling sun.
You take the step onto this
The world of beauty and hope
And find it is all a painting
Now that you are up close.
The candy canes are oil pastel
The laughter from a machine
And each beautiful star that shone so bright
Is nothing more than an LED beam.
So you rush back to find your bridge
As its slowly crumbling away
And each step you take a wooden plank falls
You develop many wounds, scrapes.
As you reach your past side
Its now taken a different form
The comforting road that lay there for you
Now seems to be gone.
So you are forced into building a path
Maybe youll think twice about being in a rush
To head over to that other side
The one full of fake lush.

| The imagery is vivid-the rise to the top and desire to return to more natural ways. memorable |
