innocence, an isolated occurance
the art of innocence is a dying trade
and when placed in the wrong hands is wasted

the antonym of innocence, guilt
so many have lost innocence and are now consumed by this guilt
does time numb the desire for that lost innocence?
fortunately it does not
inherent in the soul is a need for it

what time does numb is the satisfaction of what is bringing the guilt
the guilt gnaws at the heart
conviction bestowed by a divine force sets in
the guilt becomes an unquenchable black hole
eaten alive by this vortex of darkness many never return

two things only can quench this whirlpool of destruction
the unattainable annihilation of the universe
and the forgiveness of the divine force that brought that universe into being
and that force alone can bestow the renewed innocence so many desire
it just takes faith, nothing more
