To keep at bay a heart that aches
A few simple things is all it takes
To have armor of your own make
It's all about just having fun
But be aware when it's close to done
You must always be the first to run
Pick and choose and be amused
Just don't ever get too attached to
Someone whom you're sure to lose
Pluck your heart from your sleeve
Don't let it stray beneath the sheets
Unless you want to taste defeat
Hold on to all your sweet allure
Mystery can oft ensure
That he's always left, wanting more
Sometimes you're better to be fake
To protect your heart so it won't break
Put on a mask, for your own sake
I always say; In love, be true
But bashed-in hearts are good for few
Why suffer if no love's in view?
I recommend, don't stay like this
It's just a temporary fix
For a weary heart that's long been sick
It's no hard thing to be a tease
Men give in with such great ease
Made simpler with rules like these
So here is how and what to do
Ladies, this one's just for you
Use it well and follow through
And your heart will never split in two
