My Valentine, you changed my life.

My Valentine, you stole from me
as our lips danced lovingly.
You took my heart, my innocence.
You plundered me without pretense.
You robbed my boredom; I now thrive.
My tired eyes jump brightly alive.
My Valentine, you pilfered me:
independent captive free.
My attention halts as you sing.
My heart flutters as angel's wing.
You took my loneliness default,
replacing it with hug assault.
You pocketed low self-esteem,
and showed me God's love can redeem.
Thank you, love, for burgling me.
Your tenderness has set me free.
