Lost Innocence

[healedsoul]

Sheepish cries inhabit
Once peaceful nights
Innocence seeks refuge
From the raging storm
Tagged in black and blue
Praying to be rescued
Thinking that they knew
Evil rises in the dark
Wearing a mask
To fool the youth
A familiar face washed red
Each round intensifies
The burning desire
Seeking the child
To quench the hunger
Shivering in fear
Under the bed
Hoping his shelter
Will bring light to him yet
Tainted forever
Chained he will be
A face of wonder shattered 
Plagued by his past
Memories haunting 
Angels form
Who knew innocence
Could be torn
