My "No-Return" Policy

About this poem

This sharp poem reflects a fierce commitment to self-respect. With a strict “no-return” policy, the speaker refuses to revisit anyone who damages their dignity, embracing a ruthless yet empowering approach to personal boundaries.

Head held high, fueled by extreme ego,
my nature is defined by this ruthless duo.
I live by a strict “no-return” policy.
If my self-respect feels even slightly damaged,
call it an extreme form of psychology.

Once I desert something or someone,
the entire canvas turns barren, a desert.
That moment becomes the point of no return,
and “revert” has no place in my dictionary.
