You Took Me

You Took Me

A Poem by Emma Claire

You took my days and my nights 
all my dreams and my frights 
turned them against me-- 
give them back! 

Thief! 
Thief! 

You who stole my hours 
my very thoughts! 
Who reached deep into my mind to find 
dusty treasure, 
my mind that is but a crowded woods 
You came in the night as shadow 
and in the morn as light 
You've uprooted everything every little thing 
You are no Robin Hood! 
 
You stole my heart 
and I want it back... 


...don't I?
