Innocence

March 28, 2016

That very day everything I knew came crashing down,

and I now knew nothing. 

 

That very day I lost my direction,

what I was doing,

where I was going.

 

That very day time changed,

things seem to never end.

 

That very day I became scared of little things,

books dropping and doors slamming. 

 

That very day I began to view people through different eyes,

who could I trust?

 

That very day I realized people aren't always who they claim to be, 

people are deceitful.

 

That very day I began to feel dangered,

and in a place I was supposed to feel safe.

 

That very day I began to view society through different eyes,

what was wrong?

 

That very day I experienced fear,

not the kind you get watching a scary movie. 

 

That very day I began to see the wrong in things, 

not everything is good and pure. 

 

That very day everything I knew came to an end,

and that very day I became another person,

and that very day I lost my innocence.
