He came to me quite suddenly on a cold and lonely day. He brought me warmth, he brought me hope, he stole my heart away. No reason to suspect it, things ended long ago, I never would have dreamt it but he made me love him so. He came and stole my logic, he turned it inside out. He made me want and need him with fervor, without doubt. He took my heart and held it in a kind and gentle way. The only probem rampant is he's not allowed to stay. He stole my good intentions replaced them with desire. I never planned to be here in emotional quagmire. He took away my heartache although it's coming back. He gave me hope, he gave me bliss, but now I'm on the rack. He stole my peace of mind, now I'm tortured in the night. I fight the urge to run to him, an unexpected plight. Beloved thief, I ask you, will you ever be with me? Or will you hand me back my heart because you can't break free? |

Great, simply great!! More of the same, please. Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility. -William Wordsworth- |

Wow. So well written. But so much pain. I've felt that kind of pain in a very similar situation - I don't think I've hurt more in my life than then. I really feel for you if you're going through that. I know it's a terrible cliché but time does heal it eventually though the present be like hell itself. allan |

like the way you compared a thief to a lover...sorry for the pain you are going through...it must be hard to still be in love with someone(beloved thief) when he has disappointed you so |

Superb! Very well done! Suffering has that one good side: it makes us creative. Lotharingia "For God's sake, he's a poet. Poets are meant to feel miserable. Otherwise, what the hell are they here for? What are they going to write about?" Tom Holland |
