Loss of Innocence

Stumbling again through darkness.

It seems so easily we can reach the forbidden fruit.

Weathered and tarnished soul.

Will you wipe this filth off of my feet?

Tiny tragedies and a corrupt heart.

Fix me anew.

Bring me back to the person I once was.

Innocent.

Now wiser but weak and ill with unnecessary want.
