ODE To The New City

The city's big, it's busy, yes,

But it hides its sadness

Behind all the tall facades.

The city's sad, with no time to reflect;

No wonder it's lifeless.

Some find it sorted,

Well, I find it soul-vacated.

It's safe, I've felt it, true,

But couldn't keep its happiness safe too.

People, there are uncountable,

But souls, they're no longer accountable.

The city's big, but its beauty...

Oh, it's only skin deep.

For if you peep beneath,

It's nihility only, that will...

Yes, give you a cold face.

It's pessimistic, you may complain,

But hey, wait! White is beautiful,

Only because there is black!
