so lost and blue

if only

we were rich, if

we were

taller,

thinner, had blue

eyes,

and perfect teeth.

if only

we went to a better

school,

had better friends

lived in a better

house.

drove a nicer car.

if only our parents

were better

at what they did,

their parents too.

perhaps

then

we wouldn't be

so sad

and lonely. so

lost and blue.
