Beautiful thief
You are a beautiful thief
You steal my time
You steal my balance
You steal my attention
You steal my concentration
You steal my sleep.
You are a beautiful thief.
You take my breath away.

“Hope is a helium balloon. It is a wish lantern set out into the dark sky of night.” Sharon Weil
Gifted
I want to laugh
as infectious giggles fill the air
a family,
its youngest gifted a balloon,
so enthralled, excited
running carefree,
trusting, or was it forgetting
with a letting go
just to see it floating,
the child was sad and crying,
but I really understood that balloon,
and I held it in my heart
gifted by its freedom.
