Stolen Innocence
Such a short distance,
As Time has now Run Dry;
On a world so abused,
even God begins to cry.
A world we now have, that continues to betray;
The innocence of our children and the smiles they display...
Forced into the evils of a man's sexual maze..
morbidly manicured,
So that the evil can graze.
Leaving behind all the damage and distrust,
and lives to be lived,
in scattered disarray;
Innocence now aborted,
as its stolen and then caged;
As children grow into junkies, with the need to numb their pain;
Refusing to pull the cork, From their bottled up rage;
Others, hiding behind success;
now begin to seek, so to graze upon their prey;
Destroying all the smiles and innocence in their way...
