Is this correct and natural?
This is who I've become: a timid city slicker leading a monochrome existence in this ugly concrete behemoth of a city. I've forgotten what it feels like to touch the soil with my hands. I've forgotten the hum of the honeybees and the scent of roses when they are in full bloom. And the irony is that my colleagues here see me as a townie. They don't say it explicitly but I can sense it.
