Innocence lost

A poem with two meanings

In a world without stars - children

look up to the sky - they

see nothing - are

they lost 

innocence

Author's Note

I wanted to try a different way of writing a poem. It started with the prompt 'a world with out stars' and spiralled into this. On another note, have fun mismatching words and coming up with new meanings.

Yes they are lost. Someone has taken their innocence from them. They are in a world without stars or wonder or beauty. It's a horrible place. A place many escape only at death. Good poem.

Thanks, I like your outtake on my poem, you make it seem quite deep when it started off as a jumble of words!
