Grass Appears Greener On The Other Side- Laura Cooke

I’ve heard it told that “the grass is always greener on the other side.”
Well that all depends on what side you’re on!

From where we stand we can think that it must be better on the other side,
Nothing can be worse that where we are right now.

But once you step over, you soon realise that it’s all just an illusion,
You fight and beg to get back onto this side again.

You belong on this side!

Its only when something goes wrong that you even start to gaze at the other side.
Exciting.
Free.
Greener.
These are what you think will await you.

You begin to think that you won’t be happy until you get to that side.
So you deny everything you are on this side and move over.

Happy now?

It starts off well; you think ‘I can’t believe I didn’t come here sooner.’
You are free and you leave all those worries behind.

But then you start to miss certain things.
Security.
Love.
Greener.
These are what definitely await you.

Then something goes wrong on the “greener side”.
You are made to realise you were wrong and that nothing can be better than the side you left.

Get back there quick!!!!
