You’re to be beautiful.
You’re to be soft.

Sure you can wear sweats when we are alone,
but when we go out...do yourself up.

Take your nose ring out when we go to meet my mom.
Wear a lot of makeup when I take you to meet pops.

Sure you can be smart,
just not as smart as me.

We can talk about anything except
your shaddy past, your monthly curse or your ex.

Oh, and by the way, you are a virgin right?
