Price

what is the price of loving me,

i want to know. 

is it too expensive to have in one go

does the monthly installments succumb the portion of your salary

(or your parents’ money)

or is it because i don’t fit in your dashboard, or any dusted

shelves at your home

are you confused whether to show me to your guests at the living room

or make me stand beside your bed lamp in your bedroom 

don’t you know what to use me for

after reading the label 

‘ANYTHING TO MAKE YOU HAPPY’

or scared of the warning sign

‘CAUTION : TOO CLINGY’ 

what is it that makes you add me into your cart and delete the whole tab because you never dare to click

‘Check Out’ ?

Now,

i get it why your cash always lacks a dollar and

your cards are not able to swipe

you can’t afford a single cent of courage to have the audacity 

to buy 

nor calling me yours

or proudly claim

“she’s mine”
