I am not a stepping stone
I am not dirt to be walked on
I am not yours to be tossed away
I will not let you undervalue my worth
I will not be taken for granted
I will not be abused
I will not let you disrespect me
I will not build you up
Just to be left behind
The feelings will be mutual
They will be reciprocated
And if they aren't
Well then
You just don't have a chance
If you want my heart
You will have to steal it
Break down the walls that guard it
Catch me by surprise
Tread lightly
And I will welcome you with open arms
