The beautiful thief

She took you away;

With her long ebony hair

That falls like soft petals

Around her innocent face. 

You were mesmerized;

With her sweet smile

That seems inviting enough

To lure you into her world.

The way she kept you at bay,

Made you gravitate your way

Towards her more. 

Like the sinful apple

From the Garden of Eden

That tempted both Adam and Eve,

You were in every way tempted

To take a bite and reveal her secrets.

As thrilling as taking a dive,

You took the plunge so instantly.

And with a taste of her soft lips,

She took you away.

Just like that,

She took you away from me.
