Heart For Sale

Used, and slightly abused, heart for sale Cost, not much, just a lifetime of love A vow to keep me safe and warm Your solemn promise to always be true. Cost, not much, just a lifetime of love If my heart is what you desire Your solemn promise to always be true That's all I'm asking of you If my heart is what you desire To share our lives is what I aspire That's all I'm asking of you After your vow, I give even the best of me To share our lives is what I aspire A vow to keep me safe and warm After your vow, I give even the best of me Used, and slightly abused, heart for sale

Touching piece reads like a country song. Enjoyable and a worthy write as well as read. Thanks for sharing your pantoum. I like the repetition and focus it brings to the poem.
