Thief in the night

by Rose not your average   Aug 6, 2007


It is completely silent,
But something is violent.
There is only a few lights,
And soon there may be a fight.
Nobody is out,
Except one.
All dressed in black,
Creeping along in the shadows,
Trying not to be seen,
Seen by who?
There is nobody out.
He creeps up to a door,
Somehow unlocking it.
And steps inside.
Takes what he wants
And leaves.
He is the thief in the night.

    Well you should put this one to into stanzas =) but anyway it was a good poem, using the last words as the title is really effective, well done. I think you can improve this poem - I know coz you're a good writer.

    Kepe up the good work.

    It started off rhyming and then it seems you changed your mind lol. It was unique though and I did enjoy the read. It was kind of mysterious. Nice job. 4/5
