Sent off in a bottle

• Artist: Leszi
• Description: Just sort of a quick summary of my feelings on life in general up to this point. Kinda depressing really, but everything gets better with time, eh? no worries!
  
  The title refers to the fact that I started it in one of those Verizon bottles in the aquariums.
  
  Note: "envious" in the second stanza is meant to be read as 2 syllables, ie: (en-v'is), instead of 3 (en-vi-ous).

If people come, and people go, and only change remains,
Then why, oh wearied travelers, eyes hardened by the road,
Must ever be, this lonesome me,
With teary drops do stain?
------------------------------
In seven years and maybe more I've been both far and wide.
I've seen so much and loved and laughed and watched all cares erode,
But ever in, this envious sin,
Creeps up on either side.
------------------------------
Once more I gaze into the glass that shows both light and dark
And wonder if I've ever been a man or just a toad....
Could I? Would I? Will I please?
...it all is just a lark.
------------------------------
....
------------------------------
Envision if you will a world devoid of time and space
And in this world a char'cter dressed completely à la mode.
He drifts there and frets where
He fits in this odd place.
