Innocence Lost
If I could go back in time...
I would paint a picture
To replace the puzzles
Of your life that have been torn apart
I would paint a smile on your face
Instead of tears...
Replace worry
With hope...
I would put fairies around your bed
To watch over your innocence
While you sleep and as you go about in life
These fairies would be warriors too
Super-human martial artists
Ready to strike out
At anyone who would try to steal your innocence
I would cleanse and erase the EVIL
That has opened your eyes like the APPLE
I would sprinkle pixie dust on you...
To make you forget all the bad
I would go back to the Garden of Eden
I would crush the EVIL one...
The one who stole your innocence from you
And caused you to be
Cursed forever from innocence lost
