Array ( [sid] => 58813 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The Theif [time] => 2004-08-04 04:30:43 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I remember it clear,
like the dawn of this day,
heart beating with fear,
and self ebbing away,
thru the darkness and swelling,
my mind it did rape,
tho i tried my rebelling,
i found no escape.

Because it over took me,
and dragged me away,

I screamed out for help but no words i could say,
i was lost for some time,
in the fog and the grime,
it took me so long to find my way here,
i had to work hard at the wheel just to steer,

So im sat with a life ready to rebuild,
an empty glass waiting to be filled,

I will work very hard and try with my might,
to stay out of that place i no i must fight,
cos it creeps up on you and lures you in,
knocks you unconscious and tears off your skin,
til your naked and shaking not sure who you are,
alone in the dark when you could have gone far.

One lifes all there is.... for now anyway,
so live to the fullest with each brand new day,
create what you want and be what you will,
stand up for yourself and foot your own bill,
tools are at your disposal to live out your dreams,
the magic is in you aswell as the screams [comments] => 3 [counter] => 178 [topic] => 21 [informant] => x_midnight_x [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

A Theif's a misspelled Thief. Ask Mick to go change it, should it bother anyone other than those who comment simply to poke fun at innocent mistakes.

Anyway - I like this poem- it has a decent moral attached, and it comes in an easy-to-read package, which is at once passionate, and meaningful.

Keep writing.
