…My thief

I know I deserve you

I fought long and hard

clawed and marred

Through death and a beaten heart

Through malicious lies in front of

Innocent eyes torn apart

I feel you coming

The blood dances

through my veins surging

I feel you close

You submit my intuition

I don’t need you to save me

Just steal my mind

Pump your words powdered with

Poetic ammunition

Revive my inspiration

I don’t need you to say

“baby it’s all gonna be ok”

Just steal me from my bed

Carry me into the rain

Pull me by my braids

To a dark and soaking place

I don’t need you to fix my past

Just steal my future

End your night into my day

Your mouth stealing pleasure

After me like a vulcher

I feel you coming closer

Postured and on the hunt

Ridding my doorway of

The wolf in sheep’s clothing

My relentless thief

A stolen invitation
