poem \"Thief\"

and this one's my favorite of the three written on v-day by far...

Thief --02.14.04 Saturday--
here I lie,
scattered about the sheets,
afraid of what may die;
of what may slowly reap.
worldly wonders,
drown out the true;
while here doth she sits,
wanting only you.
tears stain once happy smiles,
laughs are only distant dreams;
heat rises from his mark,
as there she lies nakedly stark.
welts slowly fade,
burns slowly heal;
but broken hearts cannot be sown,
only time may mend the pain.
she chokes at the thought,
of slowly ending it all;
she wants only the best,
but the bad is for what she always doth fall.
turning her head she stares,
eyes clear from the pain;
she no longer hears;
she no longer yearns in vain.
silent now;
her heart won't break,
her cries will fall no more;
silently her life did thou take,
as away walked the cause.
