The Thief
The Secret Thief
Unknown and unaware
Until now,
As his life sees the edge
of the horizon approach
The Thief of hearts
The Thief his entire life.
His mother's love was his first
stolen gem.
Unexpectedly Everlasting
and Eternal
Then
the women of his youth.
He honed his skills as the thief
Of love.
Love that was always fleeting
But instructive and reassuring
The master thief appeared in
Middle age
Plundering the world
Constantly unexpected
But always painful and criminal
Until she appeared and
It ceased being theft.
It became a process of giving
And the gift appeared in time
Creating a legacy of love.
A legacy of stealing and giving
A Love beyond theft alone
