Bandit In the Night

You stole my heart like a bandit in the night 
And now your nowhere in sight
I heard you when you said forever 
Who would have guessed that forever would be severed by the look in her eye
How do you live without a heart?
Do you  become a monster that waits in the shadows for a chance to restart?
Searching for your perfect victim, to rip into  and steal there heart
You stalk your prey waiting for the time to pounce 
To devour there heart ounce by ounce
And once you got their heart in your clutches you will be soon be gone
Like that bandit it the night
A sick cycle  that goes on and on
Never to end until you find the one
The one that truly loves you and never leaves your side
He’ll guard your heart with his life 
Always and forever, no bandit will ever come insight
