Dreams of Suburbia

I watch you sleep

And wonder if you dream about me

I don’t know; do you?

I dreaming of us traveling

Anywhere to get away from

The humdrum way of this town

I wanted to go to some city

And become something I am not

I know you’re too old to move; I am so

And lived in this town too long

That the spider’s web fastened

My ankle to the concrete of suburbia

I will never know the chances I had

If I had left
