Love Poem: My Guard

My Guard

My heart is cracked
..it aches

I use it carelessly
..it shakes

I must be wise now
..it’s sore

It can withstand the blows
..no more

I let it fall so hard
..again

I must shelter it
..from pain

I should be more aware
..it’s sad

From all the heartache
..it’s had

I’ll never fall again 
..so hard

I must once more keep up
My guard.
