Innocence
Innocence
O Innocence! When did you leave me?
You were a child when I was born
Hand-in-hand our childhood went
In time, we grew ....together.
When was it that you passed me by?
Was I too blind to see?
Reflected on the visage of children
I find you near, yet so far!
My hand reaches out
You evade me, cleverly.
O Innocence! Why did you leave me?
