Box of Tissues-Humiliation-

Why was I a 32A
Why not a volumptuous D
Can’t afford a boob job
Only one thing open to me

Can use a jelly filler
That feels disgusting in your hand
Or a box of tissues
Doesn’t matter which brand

I have a cold so it’s ok
The tissues might come in handy
Stuffed my bra with them
Thought I looked just dandy

Went to the party smile on my face
Danced ate and drunk, got so warm
Had funny looks, plenty of space
Asked my best friend why am I alone

When she stopped laughing
Couldn’t believe when told
Tissues used were impregnated with
The smelly stuff used for a cold
