Ok... this has allready been published, so don't any of you rip me off! My senior project is to turn some of my poems into songs too, so if I end up being really famous you can say you read my poem on Achaea first. hehe. All paranoia, however the f(beep)k you spell that, aside, here goes
innocence
in a sin
never wondering
why she wins
Your girl's so bright
so innocent & pure
a beacon of light
that doesn't burn
Can you feel the cold?
Or are you numb
Busy nuzzling no one
So look at this light
before it goes out
grapes turn into wine
and what's cute becomes "Fine"
in time
And after that
All that shines is sure to fade
Innocence abandoned, bows to blade
you can't help it, it won't change
Iron will rusts, tarnished with age
So when the future is dark
and the past stings your eyes
look at the now
and smile when she shines
Penned by my hand on the 20th of Valnuary, in the year 244 AF.
