I do love you, I don't deny, <br />But if you break my heart, <br />I won't cry and I won't die. <br />You're not the boss of me, <br />You don't decide for me, <br />And you'll never steal my pride, <br />I am not your object to control, <br />No one controls me. <br />I may be a peacemaker, <br />But I am not your fool, <br />So don't play games with this heart. <br />Don't cheat and creep around, <br />Or you're gone, and if you lie, <br />In any way, you'll be caught out, <br />And I may not shout, <br />But you'll hear my words. <br />You can be in this heart, <br />But it is not a fragile heart, <br />So don't cry crocodile tears: <br />I won't bruise, no matter your game. <br />I won't tell you what to do, <br />Just stay faithful, honest and true, <br />So there'll only be my kiss, <br />And I'll never call you a taxi, <br />Late at night, <br />Because we should stick together, <br />Your loyalty all I ask.<br /><br />Paula Glynn<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/don-t-play-games-with-my-heart/
