Sweet sweet innocence
Bygone and lost
Forever errant in the dark labyrinth of a corrupted mind
A firebomb
The glass shatters as the innocence
The fire spreads throughout
Like the darkness that spreads through the heart
Snuffing out the flame that thought the world good
If too fast
It snuffs out all other light
Leaving only darkness to be perceived yet not seen
A spot of light, hope need only be seen to make believe
That the world is not darkness entire
But some cannot
By some misfortune they look away instead of towards
And they plunge deeper and deeper
Until they take the final dive
Into the eternal, impenetrable dark from which there is no return
There will they lie
Forevermore in peace and at rest
