My Thief Poem by Darlene Walsh
My Thief
In loneliness all my life I was standing apart
until I met you and life had a start
your presence is magic that will never depart
Should I call you a thief for stealing my heart
where would I be without you
I haven't got a clue
except my heart would be a dark brew
You looked at me and I thought you were jokin'
your words were things I've never heard spoken
you touched my hand and life was awoken
Should I call you a healer for mending what was broken
where would I be without you
as each day love grew
I awaited the drop of the other shoe
Maybe you thought loving the odd one was the fashion
a passing thought you were lying made me go ashen
but in my soul I felt true compassion
Should I call you a lover for filling me with passion
where would I be without you
everything's now so new
my reasons to be had been so few
When you first hinted true feelings it brought a tear
was this just another speed bump in life I had to bear
or was it your life you truly wanted to share
Should I call you a friend for always being there
where would I be without you
I knew you loved me too
our lives together would forever be true
The poem is pure and pristine. Evokes feelings of love in the readers' minds.
A wonderful love poem, Darlene. True love is what we all aspire to. After all the setbacks in your young life you were unsure at first but he gradually made you feel secure, you deserve it. Well done.
Beautiful poem. A lovely tribute to a loving and caring partner and to the power of love. Wish you a long, wonderful and love filled life. Read this poem on Br's PH show case. Thanks for sharing.
Darla aka Darlene, i just submitted to showcase and noticed a very interesting (to me) 'thing' about your poem. is the way you used a set pattern for capitalizing [certain first-words-in-lines (and not in others) in your stanzas] something you did intentionally? ? ? bri :)
a dream come true? I HAD that happen 4 times! well, not exactly. congratulations on one-year-down! and thanks for sharing with us with such a lovely (ugh!) poem, with great rhyming. i especially appreciated: jok'n ...............he probably WAS! [i'm just jokin'! ] but now i notice that i typed jokin' and you typed jok'n. i'll bet you a box of large ice cream sandwiched that i'm right! now i sound like you are MY home-boss! and the second time around (reading this) , i also notice even more so how the rhyming is done. wonderful. favorite lines: Maybe you thought loving the odd one was the fashion a passing thought you were lying made me go ashen this will be #10 i think.......... in my/our August 'showcase' for PH poets on my PH site. :) bri
