My innocence bludgeoned
A witness to the harsh realities
I seem to entertain
Always to remain
Chained to my experiences
To the delusional that is dealt

Tainted wisdom wreaked its havoc
The wrath of my youth
Was not going to become my truth
This emotionless and faceless society
Had captured and rendered my life ,
An inconsequence of birth
No apparent worth
De-sensitized to the debauchery
A place already booked
In the mortuary

I've grown to discover my own design
I'll not whimper and perish
In the corner, out of the way
I will endeavour to unfold
Tear back the layers
To a brighter day
Forge a friendship
With fortitude
Enjoy my freedom
As my innocence now
Lives in solitude
