Child's Dead Innocence

Overcome


in these days of lust can we still prevail? 
rive out our hearts as ounishment if we fail 
disgust ourselves with the worthless impure 
potency for the day as we endure 
disguised disease is seen as pleasure 
distraught in thought given your glow 
abandoned thought mistaken measure 
this sexual snare will never slow 
these selfish minutes, destroying years 
read the words of lust 
spelled out in tears 
child's dead innocence 
you can't retrieve prostituted virginity 
you've done it all 
no stranger to the fall
