Something I wrote a while ago...

Innocence Lost

downward
my heart goes
falling
it feels low
onward
I can't see
stuck
oh pity me

when I was young
the world so bright
so full of things
to my delight

forever
it seems too far
now
I want more
hopeless
this heart of mine
secluded
in my own mind

when I was young
the world so bright
so full of things
to my delight

treasure
the times with you
nostalgic
of skies so blue
innocence
where have you gone
empty
where do I belong?

when I was young
the world so bright
so full of things
to my delight
