I set it on the table
A "for sale" sign by its side
Yet No one stops to look
No one wants to buy.

I decide to make a sign
That'll catch everyones sight
I get out a blank white card
And on it I write:

"Slightly used and battered
With some tears and missing shards
But still beating and strong
Despite the many scars."

People started to crowd around
And made a big fuss
As you lifted it softly with your hands
And simply asked "How much?"

I said it didn't cost much
Just some tender love and care
Some kisses and laughter
And a promise of being there.

You nodded slowly to yourself
Saying "I'll give it a new start"
That is when
You bought my heart.
