Priceless presents


What should I give you
I don't possess anything
Can not promise the world too
Cause that is something i cant bring

I do have three objects
Three that are really close to me
They may not be perfect
So I present them as they may be

First I give you my soul
I know its broken
And can not be made whole
But it can always mend
And if love is poured on the holes
We can make the pieces blend

Second i give you my heart
Covered by ice for years
Kept aloof and apart
I know it is hard and fierce
But don't be hasty to discard
Your warmth, given with such ease
Can sweeten this bitter tart

Third is what identifies me
And all that is mine
But my love if you agree
It is what offers you my life
Though it can not give you
Money, power or fame
I still ask if you'll give me you
And take this third object- my name
