Love For Sale
a hug is inexpensive
it does'nt cost much
because it isn't sensitive
it isn't nessisarily a crush
an act of kindness is all it is
very little emotion we give
we only get them
simply because we live
that's why a hug is so inexpensive
a grasp, that's inexpensive too
give them away, that's what we do
it's passion, a thing hard to control
men use then on each other
they don't have to be bold
an embrace, now that's a different story
one has to be held to get that glory
a gift so special
it may cost some time
a real embrace is earned
not stolen with a line
it can be as short as a hug
but it's still an embrace
not only an act of love
but a special kind of grace
it may come at the end of a long journey
or in may come to end a date
an embrace is something that takes us
to a very special place
to be held by someone special
is the closest you can come to divine
to recieve that special gift
an act of love specially designed
oh what a surprise to one been given
the most precious gift
ever received by the living
not quite material
but indeed something else
you can put it in your heart
but not on a shelf
an occasion worth remembering
a special moment by itself
was it worth the mourning
the cost of these wonderful things?
a tear or two, a thought that's blue
a dedication to give a life to you
we barter with emotions
our most precious ideals
and pay our souls devotion
the most expensive gift there is
