| LOST INNOCENCE Looking back on a time and a place Seeing a child innocent face Knowing that things are not as they seem For inside she cries silent tears Deep inside she is filled with pain She feels dirty and filled with shame Innocence lost at a youg age Locked this child in a pain filled cage There is no freedom or escape From the fact this child was raped This child is sentensed to eternity Eternity locked away with all this shame She can't help but feel she was to blame Even though common sense says it wasn't She can't help from having these thoughts "what ifs" keep running through her mind She keeps going back to those memories in time If there isn't something different she could of done Why didn't she keep screaming or try to run Fear kept her froze to the spot while this grown mad did what he should not Shame and fear made her keep silent Kept her from telling someone of the violence With every touch part of her died Now she is in a prison with no gates.
