Thief

I gave you everything I could
At least as much as I dared
I was glad to find someone like you
Because I thought you really cared

But as I told you secrets
Allowed myself to love
You told me reasons why we couldn't be
But you were what I was dreaming of

I should've followed my instinct
And never let you in
You stole my trust and feeling
And now they won't return again

The hands tick slowly past
Minutes pass me by
I try to think of truths you've said
But they all turn into lies

You gave me your reasons
Of why we wouldn't last
You should've given me the truth
For that's all that I asked

I've held your hand through hardships
Through troubled times and tears
I never saw you as a thief
Not in a million years

But what you stole was valuable
To nobody but me
So I'm writing this to you
Hoping that you'll set them free

I need my trust and love back
It's them I can't live without
And since you've left me lonely
All I feel is doubt

I hope you don't feel guilty
I made them seem fair game
But you didn't give them back
And that's just not the same

You thief! You cad! You scoundrel!
Taking what wasn't your's...
Leaving only emptiness
And closing open doors

I have no one to blame
But I and I alone
But I thought with you
My heart was in a safety zone

I guess I was wrong.....
