    poetry - lost innocence

    Lost Innocence


    As I grow into the sunrise of my being
    can the memory of your yesterday
    guide me through my painful tomorrows
    Can your lips utter the words
    that will be the balm for my tortured soul
    Just as the wings of an imprisoned butterfly
    beat futilely against the walls of its glass prison
    so is my being trapped in a material condition
    The petals of a withering rose
    fall slowly to the ground
    Pluto pirouettes gracefully on its axis
    The soft darkness of a moonlit night
    in modesty cover my naked dreams

    The stars smile distantly

    Can we ever dream the innocent dreams of children?
    Can we hold the universe in our cupped hands,
    and savour the fragrance of paradise
    Can we wipe away the tears of angels and
    console death as she weeps
    Can we catch the falling star
    as it plummets from the heavens
    Can we hitch a ride on the tail
    of a blazing comet
    Can we bathe our bodies
    in the scented waters of the Milky Way
    and strew rose petals on Saturn
    Let the gentle winds of love
    ruffle the feathers of our fragile wings
    and listen to the flute of God play a sad tune
    Can I ever be what I was?
    Can I ever be innocent again?
