Love For Sale (Refurbished)

notapoet

Up for purchase is your love

You offer it as unconditional and true

Heart mended of all scars

And said to be good as new

 

Purged of the memories

From your painful hidden past

Promising a world of endless pleasures

And desire that will always last

 

But under that shinny new exterior

Lies a bruised and battered core

And a trunk full of discarded hearts

Of others who have bought it before

 

Although your allure is impressive

Your search for another sucker is lost

I could never pay the price

Of what your love must truly cost

 

Because hidden between the lines of your offer

Are all those additional fees

This will include my heart and soul

And everything that makes me…me!

    I did not read the note "humor" until after I read it. So glad you added the note. Merry Christmas.
