Thieves are everywhere. They take many forms. But they always prefer darkness to Light. Walk in the Light to avoid the bad things, Lance.

Thief

by Lance Hodges

Everything was great,
that was the start -
Like a thief in the night
she stole my heart.

Her mind is strong,
her words are sweet;
She's in the dictionary -
she's under Beauty.

My heart was hers,
no longer mine,
that's how it is
for the rest of time.

Abrupt the ending,
unjust for me:
Like a thief in the night,
leaving only the pain

I love the rain,
the crying it hides,
when your emotions
can't be put aside.

The rain will stop,
the crying will too -
don't let bad things
happen to you.
