Thief

I admit it's still difficult, my dear
because you are still entwined around my heart
and every beat drops slowly
and everything you were is tangled in my head
I'm not quite sure what to do
for every breath I take
I step forward into the clear
but you had ensnared my every emotion
and bewitched me to the bone
kisses of honey and poison and mud
I believed religiously in every word you said
Like a thief, I pick at locks holding me down
and clean rain will wash over my heart once more
