End of Innocence

blood suffocates my broken heart like darkness suffocates the sky 

remembrance of fog on a rainy day perception deceiving the eye 

they say time heals all wounds yet it still leaves a scar 

we can never again go back to innocence to change who we are

Deep scars, wounds hard to heal but hopefully time will wound all heels! Luv Lizzie.

You're right, John. We can't return to the innocence. Scars linger, but we can learn from our mistakes. Can relate to your poem. Love, Carolyn
