Scruplous Thief

One more day has passed by, sun’s hiding behind the skies
The long night has fallen on earth again; bringing loneliness, king of all demons
The deafening silence is pitching high notes
Cracking the thin walls of a heart broken soul
Giving a chance to the most scrupulous thief of all, time
To steal away, again, one thing left behind, my thoughts of lost time.
Stolen already, the precious moments that created many memories
All mine, my emotions, my creations, but are no more mine
The fete has joined hands with time to steal away all my reasons to smile.

Is it just me or the wound of time has taken my wings,
Wings of hope, life and reason to smile, leaving me forsaken
The gust of time is so darn strong, it broke the bridge connecting me with the world
The castle I built, my hide out, is now blown into millions of pieces
The time machine has spun the wheel of fortune out of control
Once more, once again, time has thrown me off my feet
Deep into the dark space where wolves are howling
No star is shinning, not even a dim flame burning
All it has for me, a merry-go-round with only one seat saved
Unstable no hand rest, no bar to hold on to if I fall
It’s spinning in endless circular motion making me sick, by the second
I’m losing my mind, help, help I cry out loud
But only to echo back into my ears,
Already bleeding of listening to my sound
What is it more the devil, time, has left to snatch from me, perhaps my sanity
Or insanity that has driven me to this black hole, forever to be lost in the universe
With no hope to get out alive, find my way back to life’s reality
Or will I, is a million dollar question
The answer needs to be found, once again, the answer lies with time
The devil, the thief, biggest enemy who is closer than a friend
While I wait for the verdict, I still flap hard, try to take a flight
With broken wings of broken spirits, it hurts, it bleeds
Yet enticing enough to live life to the fullest
Until I reach my destination my fete, for me, has planned
I know not, what it is, so far all I had is pain
Leaving me all alone to fight back with all the demons
Devils that are pulling me away, far, far away from everyone
God send my angel to save my bleeding soul, take my hand, wipe my tears
Give me hope of love, to find the one with to spend my life
Not be handsome, not have the riches to buy me diamonds
A beautiful human heart that’s just for me, is all I desire, is all I need
Someone to caress me, someone to walk beside
Someone who touches my heart, my inner soul
Takes my life to a whole new different level, a special world
Where together we build our home, with walls of our strength
Roof of true love, to keep us warm, ignite the fire of passion
Steps of clouds leading to our bed of roses, no disturbance, no thorns to pick
All we have is us to give the ultimate gift to each other
The gift of undying flawless love, so divinely precious
No thief, not even time would dare to taint it, break it
Because together we will have us guarding our little castle, our little world

    Thank you for taking time to read my feelings. I try to write at the moment, what I feel, whether sitting in Starbucks, or in a plane or get up in the middle of the night. Once again thanks for your appreciation that means a lot!

    Thank you for your much appreciated critique. True, it's long, but like you understood well, I had somewhat lot to say, the emotions, the feelings were simply overwhelming for me to say in just few words. I'm glad you liked my work. Once again thanks for your time & appreciation.

    Thank you for sharing this interesting piece. A tad long but you had a lot too say so it works. The powerful angst and loneliness in the first part balanced by the hope and desire to find someone. Very well done. Be blesses and welcome to the AP.
