Shield Shadow


My once fragile heart

Broken down
and restored repeatedly
over time

My refurbished heart

Now as stone

A wall of indifference
where nothing penetrates
my callous perimeter

Can't be hurt
by misplaced love anymore

I've learned 
from all 
the crash and burns
that came before

Love is great
for flowery
romantic poetry

but

the majesty

of the long term chemistry

never seems

to work for me
