Leave My Heart Alone Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Do not open my heart
With your evil charms
And rip me apart
With your lies
Licking me
With your forked tongue
Until I'm as dry as a twig
Leave my heart alone

Do not enter the inner chamber of my heart
With your dirty hooves
And spoil my mood
With your muddy intentions
Spare my bed of roses
Leave my heart alone

Do not come inside my heart
With your baggage of expectations
Expecting me
To heal your shredded heart
And help you gather your tears
And store them inside my heart
Leave my heart alone
