Innocence Lost
A little girl,
Fear of being too close,
Fear of commitment,
Do these men not realize,
One has just recently passed on,
It will take me time,
Now he'll be standing in front of God,
Linda
Innocence lost.
I'm the one who paid,
And look what it has cost.
Fear of angry men,
Because if a man is angry,
It may happen again.
Not believing anyone can love me.
Because it may not last,
I've lots of baggage you see.
Or do they not care.
That what they`ve done to a little girl,
Will take a long time, if ever, to repair ?
The other 2, I don`t know.
Should I feel sad at his passing ?
My inner child says no.
To sort through how I feel.
I need to figure out,
How with this to deal.
I'll let him handle it.
He will pass his judgement,
As he sees fit.
