Gifts

I cannot give you riches.
I cannot give you gold.
But I can give you a heart that is true,
And a love that will never
Grow cold.

Gifts are fragile and tricky things.
Best when selfless and
Without any strings.

But what if a gift is rejected?
Reflected?
Lonely and left behind?

The giver then has a choice to make.
Continue to give despite
Heartache and loss,
When gifts that are precious
End up treated as dross.

I cannot give you riches.
I cannot give you gold.
But I will give you a heart that is true,
And a love that will never
Grow cold.
