The Indomitable Heart

I won’t let me be broken hearted,
Even though ‘tis easy to get into my heart.
Stitches for a broken-heart?
That heartbreak is definitely not mine.

I won’t go anywhere near defeat,
Even if you choose not to stay away.
Because of your deceit,
My heart and I will always intact stay.

I’ll protect my feelings from those of yours,
And from your manipulations.
My heart won’t accept your heart-based bruises,
Including you.

Being used is a threat to me,
I’m not used to being used.
Being used is a custom I’m not accustomed to,
‘Tis neither for me nor for my heart.
