Growing up.

Through mists of tears,

Reflects a misery.

The fallen truth

Of Lost purity.

*********************

Somewhere in darkness,

An exquisite white budded,

With the eyes of the stars

Igniting the cold-blooded.

Having a transparence like water,

And radiating light like diamonds,

Brightening the world

With a smear of innocence.

Darkness spreads.

White eliminates in black.

They come with seducing tentacles,

To steal, to kidnap, to hijack.

Strangling the little white flames

Until their light is blown to ashes;

Squealing a goodnight lullaby above

When purity crashes.

And this dark world,

Falls back into silence.
