Shopping Isn't My Thing

Shopping?
Gag me with a spoon
If I ever actually go
I'll want it to end soon

You see, I'm not the shopping type
I really do despise it
Shopping isn't my thing
It's not my fit

But I went shopping
To make my mother smile
I hadn't seen her do that
In quite awhile

We bought 4 dresses
Just for me
I smiled for her
Let her be happy

Shopping isn't my thing
It's such a hassle
I'd rather make homemade bracelets
It seems like a fairer battle

Shopping belongs to other girls
Never this girl
She has her own sense of fashion
That's starting to unfurl.

Not very many know
That shopping isn't my thing
But once you know
Don't expect a big, shiny ring

Its not that I'm lazy
I just don't like it
I'm not sure exactly what it is
That used to make me throw a fit

Shopping isn't my thing
So don't ask me to go the mall
I'd rather go to the park
Toss around a small ball

Shopping isn't my thing
So although I love you deeply
It'll take lots of pleading
To get me out to the mall yearly

I'm glad shopping isn't major
Here on Opuss
Unlike middle school
It's a real fuss

I must go in a bit
Shopping again
I hope for it soon
To dissappear in the end

I want to come back
And read your beautiful words
But until then
I'll be shopping, unheard
