You Are

You are yearning -
You yearned to be let into my world.

You are warmth -
That's what you brought to my life.

You are love -
Something we made together.

You are distance -
Something you let happen to us.

You are pain -
That's what you cause me.

You are destruction -
You burst my bubble.

You are the past -
Of my future you robbed me.

You are hope -
Yet you give me none.

I was love -
Now I am regret.

Thief

Yesterday was another day -
You held my hand
You made me promises...

And then he came along,
He stole you away,
Thief! In the dead of night.

And you left me there
To face the cold, cheerless winter's dawn
My tears the only warmth against the bitter chill.

And my only company those empty words,
You left behind for me
While you squandered my future with a Thief.

- Abhishek Takle
