Innocence Ends

Contributed by Mars on Sunday, 14th December 2008 @ 05:25:32 PM in AEST
Topic: ApologyPoetry



-

Innocence ends where compassion begins,
The guilty from the wilting,
like the fall leaves under a leather shoe.
And so summer ends.

We are no longer children.
Father left us to fend on our own.
Oh, was his trust ill spent.
Set adrift on an ocean of time.

Many things have changed,
and it scares me.
Torturing, is torture to me.
Why do I love it so?

I'm not a child anymore.
When we withhold forgiveness,
we only withhold ourselves.
From peace.

Tonight I feel the pain,
that I, myself inflicted.
I am sorry for the suffering,
sorry for the mindless crushing.

Please, forgive me.

This one is strong and well written. I honestly am not sure I get it all but nevertheless, I like it. It's definitely wrought with emotion.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
