The price of my heart

My heart is on the table
   but I am not
      a high-pressured salesperson
I will not
   pick it up
      and dangle it before you
Nor will I haggle
   over its' price
Its' price is clearly marked:
   LOVE IN RETURN FOR LOVE
      no more, no less
My heart is a bargain
   but I am not running
      a thrift store
