INNOCENCE
Innocence,
Like butterfly wings,
loses its magick when caressed
or made captive.
Innocence,
Like wedding rings,
must be cherished
and kept active.
Innocence,
Like pristine life,
is free, reaching, alive…
Innocence,
must be protected
from debasement
In order to thrive.
There are few, too few
who know to embrace
and allow flight,
simultaneously.
Innocence,
When lost
Perhaps the
only save
Is the wisdom
gained through
experience.
