Heart Cemetery is a cemetery located in Lipscomb County, one mile south of Booker, Texas. The cemetery is maintained by the town of Booker, and has served the community since 1929.

The land was donated to Booker in 1925 by Harry Herbert and Mary Agnes Mitchell. The earliest marked grave is that of Y.E. Winn (d. 1911), reinterred here from his original burial site in Missouri. Other notable gravesites include those of the town's first physician, Dr. I.T. Smith, local businessman William Vernon Shouse, and the family of the property donors, the Mitchells.

The cemetery was designated a Texas Historical Cemetery in 2006.
