Thief

There’s sadness in knowing

It can never be

There’s heartache in knowing

You won’t be with me

There’s anger in knowing

You’re playing around

There is no joy in waiting

To be put in the ground

I need a release

Some way to break free

Some way to retrieve the soul

You’ve taken from me

I offered you everything

That’s in me to give

But you didn’t want it

And now I can’t live

Without you beside me

While we are apart

A soul just can’t live

With a broken heart

So please hear my words

As I beg and I plead

Give back the soul

That you’ve stolen from me

Well I had my first one on one session with the mentor in my writing program yesterday.  I feel amazing!  She seemed to be impressed with my book and she gave me lots of really helpful advice in the area I was struggling with.  It feels so affirming to have someone who's in the business of writing books not read your work and laugh at it.  I feel super motivated now.... :)
