Like a Thief
Joshua Starks

Like a thief in the night you came
Searching for a thing of value.
For my most prized possession.
To find it, you had to know me.
And you did.
To hold it, I had to trust you.
And I did.
I gave it to you for safe keeping.
I trusted you to protect it.
To cherish it.
And you did.
In exchange, I had to make you a promise.
And I did.
Like a thief in the night you came.
I gave you my love.
And you stole my heart….forever.
Like a thief.
