End Of Innocence

by JODIE ROMAN   Apr 15, 2006


Secrets, secrets
Lies, lies
She sits in her room,
and cries and cries.
There's no more trust
In this girl's heart.
She finally found out
That life isn't perfect.
She lived in dreams,
As children often do.
But she crawled out
Into the world everyone knew.
Things that once were.
Happiness once known;
The truth of it all
To her was shown.
Her little heart
Will never trust again.
She'll never know
A real true friend.
No more trust,
For no more lies.
She'll sit in her room
And cry and cry

    Ah yes, end of innocence, a phrase i am very familiar with. This is a brillant poem. i especially liked the repetiton emphasising the reoccuring sadness that losing our innocence does. the feeling of stepping out into a world without the innocent, and the sometimes devastating effects of this. Great write, 5/5
