For Jenny

An innocence that once was lost
Lives within a broken heart

There it lies in hope and wait
Barred behind a lonesome gate

Waiting for to be revealed
A true desire long concealed
 
Joy and light beyond compare
Filled with beauty true and fair

Certain it shall find a way 
To live and love another day
