Love is not an item you can return to the store

Love is not an item you can buy at the store
You can't pick it's colour
Or it's size
You can't compare it's price to anything else

Love is not an item you can return back to the store

If you are not satisfied the quality you have to live with it
If it's defective you can't go back and change it
It has no guarantee nor an expiry date
It has no manual and cautions on how to use it can never be replaced,
It comes and goes as it please....

Love is not an item you can return to the store.

Love is not dressed on perfect manikins
And displayed on the front door
It's not placed in a storage room with endless quantities
Once it's Over, it's gone
You can't pre-order it or put it on your wish list
It can't be paraded on walk ways,
Whoever has it is selfish to share.
If it crushes,
It crumbles and burns

Love is not an item you can return to the store

After all the disappointing relations I've been in I thought maybe I've been choosing the wrong one's till I had this revelation
