Expensive

She walked up to me
and whispered
"I'm tired of being broken
can you fix me?"

I said, "Honey, there
aren't even enough
words in The Bible."

She looked at me
with a bright-blank stare
confused, because
she was expecting
something really big

"I'm tired." I said
Of being a tool
There were many times
that I spoke a fortune
and this time-
well this time I've had enough!
My words are too expensive
to give away for free
