Thief
Sneaking very quietly
in a place I should not be,
treading very carefully
as to not bother thee.
Even though you're not sleeping,
I don't try to break the peace.
Knowing your eyes are watching
the stress only doth increase.
And so carefully I tread
with my slippers on the floor,
When you bolt straight up in bed,
You will find me there no more.
Comments and criticism welcome with open hearts and arms.
