Thief in the Night

by Baby Rainbow   Sep 17, 2021




Tell me why you are suddenly dropping into my life now,
when you have been sitting silently in the distance for years?
Are you just feeling lonely tonight,
or are you taking a shot in the dark,
hoping that I will forget how much you broke me?

I know in my gut that this sudden change of voices,
is just a conversation that I longed to hear so long ago,
but now my ears are closed, just like you closed my heart.

Making up for lost time is just a misconception,
its always in the past with all the tears we once cried.
I can't believe there was ever a time
where I believed I couldn't live without you,
even though you were happy to move on and live without me.

I will not be third time unlucky,
I have already given you too many chances,
and every single time,
like a thief in the night,
you steal every fragile broken piece
of my never-mending heart.
