Blue-Eyed Girl

I took all that attraction I don't have

For a Hollywood world that I can't stand.

I saved, collected, invested in you.

At the time, it seemed the thing to do.

I liked that you smile and laugh, your thirst for fun.

I liked watching you shine in the sun,

Not realizing the polish it takes to shine that way.

Then I woke up. It was a black Tuesday.

I had frittered my investment away.
