You are innocent
A beautiful undiscovered creature
Grazing in life's pasture
Vibrant as sun rays
Yet still a soft glow like moon light
Untouched by the inevitable pang reality
For the preditor lays in wait
Obsessive, he stalks his prey
It didn't take long for him to pounce
clawing and shredding
Tearing away something so precious
You're writhing remains crushed
Nothing left of your innocence but the crimson petals of your flower
Or so you think...
You have no idea that you are still innocent
And while such a loss can never be repaid
While you may cry yourself to sleep from this day on
While your dreams may never be the same
While you may shy away from an honest love's sweet touch
Just know...
Your are Innocent

You are innocent
A beautiful undiscovered creature
Grazing in life's pasture
Vibrant as sun rays
Yet still a soft glow like moon light
Untouched by the inevitable pang reality
For the preditor lays in wait
Obsessive, he stalks his prey
It didn't take long for him to pounce
clawing and shredding
Tearing away something so precious
You're writhing remains crushed
Nothing left of your innocence but the crimson petals of your flower
Or so you think...
You have no idea that you are still innocent
And while such a loss can never be repaid
While you may cry yourself to sleep from this day on
While your dreams may never be the same
While you may shy away from an honest love's sweet touch
Just know...
Your are Innocent
