The Thief

The Thief

Relentlessly, in he would creep.
And steal not only my dreams,
But also my sleep.

And in the day I cant escape 
as though I oughts, 
He takes my day dreams and my thoughts.

In fact the daytime is probably worst,
He burgles my appetite 
And my thirst. 

I should have seen it at the very start.
When he swapped a racing beat 
For my reliable steady heart.

He kidnapped my brain and took hostage of my soul.
I think if I let him, 
He would swallow me whole.

But he can’t be blamed for any of my grief.
For he has no idea
That he is such a beautiful thief!
