Stop thief!
I cried after you,
Until in the face I was blue
The moment brief,
I had glanced
Upon your façade
So beautiful he made you; God,
Took my breath away
And on my knees I lay
As images of you danced
Around my head
And I bled
But from where?
You had not touched but a hair
Stop, come back!
I uttered once more
Each minute past
The more energy I lacked
Feeling cold to my core
You were ever so fast,
Yet there in a red pool
I realized faintly aware
You had stolen my heart
The whole of my soul
Oh what a fool!
But I would again stare
Even if I had known this ending from the start
Upon your heavenly guise; pricey toll...
