Birthday Surprise


Hooray!! A big box has arrived.

it is so... BIG, I wonder what must be inside? 

BUT inside your mind, you know something is not right. 

Your guests stare for the size. 

I wonder who might have gotten me such a big birthday surprise?

Though the contents of the box did not fulfill the size, the written letter inside has something else in mind.

A letter from an ex-partner explains how you fooled and deceived.

To no surprise, you are deceived for all to see.

The audience realizes now "you tell real lies".

 Now you recognize you cannot be saying "you are mine".

Now you see, what you give will not come back to be a nice surprise.

 

 

 

I guess I deserve this birthday surprise.
