Innocence

Not long ago

We were young,

We were kids

With new blood, new dreams

And our mind with new memories to fill

Not so long ago

A path to be chosen

Staring at new world

With our eyes wide open.

Running wild, chasing dreams

Playing free with no worries

Enjoying our life

We want to live

Unaware of horrors to come with it

Innocent heart, blank slate

So easy for anyone to manipulate

Dark heart of a dark soul

Can change even diamond to coal

Recall that time

When we used to be

So innocent, untouched by any treachery

Remember those nights

When we used to sleep

With no tension, no worry

But with a dream to live

That innocence, that kindness

Is still within

Just recall that child

We used to be

Looking at stars in the night

I think of innocence as our light.
