    Poem Commentary

    For the things that can't be unseen, for the pain we've been delt, and the pain we've caused, for the things in this world that have changed our child mind.... because once you've lost your innocence you can never get it back.

    A Cry for Innocence

     I'll cry today
    For you, for me
    For who we used to be
    So innocent
    Now gone astray
    Waiting for death
    To take us away
    Once so pure
    Now covered with sin
    This is the loss
    Of our innocence
    Once so sweet
    And so naive
    But we saw the world
    And now we believe
    Once you're dirty
    You can never get clean
    That is the stain
    Of society

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
