Thief

Eh, we know. You’re only dark
Because you hog all the light.
You’re so romantic at heart.

Emotions race around you
Like radio waves, the ones
In the back reappearing

In front of you, distorted,
A distortion that reveals
Your personality’s there,

In there somewhere, swallowing
The heartfelt thoughts of others,
Giving nothing in return.

You’re not dark. You’re a warning
Not to get too close to you.
