I've nothing else to offer,
So, to you my friend, it's love I'll send;
It's nothing that I borrowed,
And it's nothing that I'd lend.

It has no dollar value
And it can't be overused;
It isn't fragile, so it can't break
But often it's abused.

I've given it to others,
But each time it's unique;
It's meaning is always different,
Depending on what you seek.

It's something you can store away
To feel when you're in need,
But never it is on display,
It's beauty can't be seen.

I'm giving it, no "strings attached",
No costly warranty,
This love I am sending
Has a lifetime guarantee.
