Innocence Poem by Rachel Hankins

How can I tell you
it wouldn't be the same
that everything went away
the second he came
you'll spend your time after
wishing you were saved
and your only way home
is no longer paved
no longer will people look
and see such a pure soul
they'll find that your heart
is a beatless hole
maybe you just believed
that the timing was right
or it was the way
the water reflected light
but you know he didn't care
the way he swore to you he did
I know you'll be sorry
for the lies you hid
