Innocent

by Mommy And Me   Aug 6, 2006


*We are gathered here today...
Words blur through my mind
A Tear rolls down my cheek
As Black and Red surround her

*To Grieve the life of...
9 months of protection
was not enough to save the mere child
So now we all will morn

*She is now with our Father...
9 minutes of breath
before her heart stopped
now shes dressed in white

*He will love and protect her...
With us dressed in black
and our cheeks stained in tears
we lay the rose upon her grave

A coffin for her crib
And a rose for her love
innocence will not over come
The Fate we all hold in our hands

    Oh my gosh. This was really sad, and it reminds me alot of my brother, who only passed away when he was 11 months old. Very emotional write here, and I loved how you did the writing at the start of each stanza with the star before it. If that makes sense? ..anywho, it was great. Keep it up!

    Wow. that was amazing.
    you really explained it well.
    i got a really clear image.
    awsome.
    oh and thanks for the honesty.
    the poems was meant to confuse people sort of. it's about any person who has ever killed themselve because of what someones said or done to them. and ive came close but...i wont do it because i know ill make it just fine and theyll be the ones to burn in hell. ok later.
