Innocence

A short little poem about innocence

Forget not the innocence of a first embrace

Forget not the innocence of a first kiss

Love is not a race.

Rush not into love, my dears

For soon you will know the tears

Through the hardships and turmoils

You will have to endure,

Keep your heart pure.

Lose not the feeling of innocence,

When you grow old and sense

That your time is running out

Look back at the days when you were about

So young and free

With innocence to spare

You'll wonder where it's all gone

When you are old and full of wear.

Weep not for the little time you'll have left

But enjoy the time you had

When you were pure and innocent.
