Stolen with a Smile

You came with your smile
Breaking into my world
Opening doors to which I'd thrown away the keys
You touched every part
Reaching into the depths
Taking as yours feelings which I'd never known I'd had


How can you leave me now?
Open and vulnerable
The doors flung wide and my innermost thoughts revealed


How can you just walk away?
Taking with you
The security of the wall you built around my exposed heart


I willingly gave a part of me
Exchanged it for a part of you
So that, as you go, you go in incompleteness
Taking with you the part of me
Leaving without the part of you


Two people joined forever
By that which remains within us
Something given, never taken


For when you pumbed the very depths of my soul
You did not know the depth to which we'd both be touched


Unaware I was of the thief who stole so softly in
Creeping in behind the softest words, the reassuring looks
Taken in so I gave out
And now you're gone
Leaving me also imcomplete


And forever we will remember
The smiles with which we stole each other's hearts
