Thief At Large

 

 

 

All along with my heart in my eyes

With a stealth that would you surprise

Gathering invaluables ever so discreetly

Packing it all in a cache swiftly & neatly

 

From the moment of our first ever greet

Unknown to either had begun the deceit

And from you I began to instinctively steal

Precious jewels you did unconsciously reveal

 

Your sparkling smile I first covertly stole

When towards me you had slowly strolled

The touch of your arm then struck a rare chord

That was quietly added to my growing hoard

 

Soon each moment was whisked and hidden

Laughter and care too that came unbidden

Magic and aura of every delightful greet

Fell victim to love as I began to cheat

 

So a thief I became, insatiable and bold

Robbing you bare before you could withhold

And sped back to my world fully laden

With memories that would long be my haven

 

Now I roam free living my life out

Enjoying the fruits of my satiating bout

Surrounded by those rare images I sit

Replete, re-living those moments bit by bit…
