You Shouldn't Have

today you bring bag home from the store
"oh good" i think "he buy me something nice"
"this nice suprise! what lucky lady i am today!"
then i actually open bag and my eyes do not beleive
the sight they see
handcuffs like cops use in troo life
strange leather thing they use sometime to make horses
go faster
no...this not good
who you think i am? convict or mr. ed?
these mix signals confuse me
i a woman
i need simple things?
call them simple if you want
call me simple
but yes
simple things
chocolate candies, maybe
yes, those good
and roses...any color, just as long as they fresh
and not stolen off someone's grave
chocolates and roses
those good things!
do i not deserve those things?
i think i do
