I.

He entered her life

The way a thief melted into the shadows.

There were no fireworks or explosions,

No double takes or butterflies screaming THISISTHEONEKEEPHIMCLOSE

Instead, she didn't even know he was there.

II.

At first, she didn't notice him at all

However

He had a way of slipping into her life

When she least expected it

He was everywhere she turned

And one day, she found herself looking for him.

III.

There were stretch marks on her stomach,

But he made her want to show off her scars.

Somehow,

He made her feel beautiful.

IV.

He stole her heart and walked away,

Like the thief that he was.

Her world was on fire,

And he was watching it burn.
