Innocence
Sometimes the world seems dark and gray
Not everyone sees the world that way
With time all evidence of memories will fade
No one will know who got on their knees and prayed;
A light passing by may shed some hope
Helping out all of those who struggle to cope
Let this muddled message be marked and told
Life and death will inevitably unfold;
Blood and gore seep into the earth
But others are young and innocent from birth
Our strongest and most prideful traits descend
But what is done by them it all depends;
I cannot see beyond my eyes
This hatred inside I will despise
The sadness and grief we call despair
A small child asks "Why is life not fair?"
