waiter, there's a fly in my soup...

cartoons
make my heart hurt

they bring to mind
a girl I used to be

she was cool
by someone's definition

webster holds true
for academic twats

in her world
she was a cool girl
lost in his world

I carry her regret
close to my heart

this burden
is borrowed now
& then

to remind me
who I never want to be

(again)
