Loss of Innocence

Innocence...
I once had that.
From picking flowers to swinging a baseball bat.
But not only that,
Was what I have lost.

I have lost everything.
From my job to my shimmering ring...
That ring, it shone, with its rim in the sun
But now... i have none...

Like the ring and the sun,
What I had is now gone.
The summers of childhood are now done.


Oh how I wish I could go back to those days.
But now... now it is lost.
The others and evil on innocence preys.

We must pray for a life, for NEW life, that is...
To come forth and project their glorious voices
In the world that has "right" and "wrong" choices...

The loss of Innocence didnt begin or end with me,
But depends on how you live your life.
Please live it free...
