Really just me rambling lol. Anyways, here :) Title: Innocent I value my innocence My friends call me naive And tease me for not knowing All of these inappropriate things My mom wants us to know more She says we need to know now That we are older But I value my innocence Because I know That one day, I will miss being a kid And I do, to this day Missing when I was carefree Missing when I didn’t worry What other people thought of me I want to hold on to my innocence for as long as I can I don’t want to know the bad The terrible The evil Because I don’t want to live in fear Of everyone around me Worrying if they have bad intentions And dying at any moment Or worse.. I was always jealous of the younger ones Because my teacher said that God loved them more But now, I understand Why they are so loved by God Because they are innocent Because haven’t yet been exposed to the cruelty of this world Like God, I love them too I love the them and seeing them smile And how their parents smile with them Remembering when they were kids And innocent too It gives them the chance to be free To be happy To feel like kids To forget their problems And responsibilities Just for a moment @Super_Ninja_J 2024
