Like A Diamond

Your heart is like a diamond
A unique cut, made that way
And like a peice of jewelry
Should not be tucked away

So daily please place it
Right upon your sleeve
To hide your heart would not be fair
And cause a few to grieve

When I happen to notice
A twinkle in your eye
I know for sure what it is
Your diamond deep inside

But if I wear it on my sleeve,
Unable to resist,
Someone may try my heart to thieve;
It sorely would be missed...

(I especially like your last stanza -- clever and creative.)
