Hipster Girl

Hipster girl

So cute, so young

So full of life

So full of spirit

Running around

Running around town every night

Whiskey flask in your purse

Coke in your shoe

Thrift stores in the day

Nothing to do

But just be there

Attention from all directions

The parties, music, shows

Looking back seems like magic

Now a few years later

A little thicker, not fat

Tattoos a little stretched out

Not as much attention

Not as much joy

Not as much spirit

Looking back you ask

Was it a waste of time?

What to do now?

Settle with a guy

Put ambition into education

Deal with your kid

Or try and keep the persona alive

Used up
