Childish
What I can't see,
 can't hurt me.
 I'm told to look away
 nothing more she has to say
 
 My young eyes are shielded,
 retaining their innocence
 I am not curious
 I hold tightly to my childishness
 
 I am childish
 I fear the unknown
 I hold my mother's hand
 safe from the wicked and the d---ed
 
 I'm told to look away,
 since what I can't see,
 can't hurt me.
 So what is burning my eyes?
