Double Edge Sword

Like a fortress stands my heart, surrounded by resistance,
Withstanding man's abusive showers.
I watch as you attempt to break through knowing that if
You were to succeed I'd be left in the cold, vulnerable, and alone.
You try so hard to disguise your silver forked tongue in a
Facade of meaningless romance.
But all is in vain, as your kind is well known.
Refusing to be made a fool, only he who is true and noble will overthrow my defenses.
