Painted Life

Painted Life

Painted waterfalls that never fall

Water that goes nowhere at all

In the distance thin colorful trees

Wind that never blows the painted leaves

A brook with still water under a stone bridge

A little old cottage painted on a lifeless ridge

Same old every day trapped in the same scenery

Passersby staring at the never changing me

As I stand in a painted flower field alone again

Trying to survive this painted life I painted myself in
