when pure innocence of a child is later shattered
Pure and untouched
my mind was innocent
free of fear and anger
filled with joy and happiness

Strong and steady
my heart was innocent
free of hurt and betrayal
filled with love and honesty

Carefree and happy
my soul was innocent
free of thieves and murderers
filled with light and laughter

Torn and raped
my mind became unworthy
lost its joy and happiness
filled with fear and anger

Weak and unstable
my heart became unworthy
lost its love and honesty
filled with hurt and betrayal

Stolen and murdered
my soul became unworthy
lost its light and laughter
only a black void to fill its spot
