Girl in a bubble.

GIRL IN A BUBBLE.
snk

Brandon loves his long hair.
Sharon's not so sure.
She has a thing for skinheads -
and Gary wants to 'do her'
Girls are not for Brandon -
but Tina thinks he's sweet.
He prefers her brother.
Gary's rather neat.
He's also heterosexual.
He's into Sharon's friend.
But Tina fancies Brandon.
She hopes that he might 'Mend'
Sharon can't be bothered.
Rebuking Gary's glare.
She turns to face the camera -
and leaves us in mid air.
All perfect skin and lip-gloss.
As fake as Hollywood.
As rigid as the actors -
and so misunderstood.
Devastation rumbles -
as the credits role off screen.
Life can be so cruel -
for a teenage drama queen.
Waiting on instalments.
So central to the plot.
Learning to be fake -
'cause fake is all she's got.
