Innocents Lost

In childhood we learn to embrace love...

Innocents Lost…


 


Had it here just a minute ago,


Long periods of time to us,


Just a flitter of a feather,


In the grand scheme,


Beaten they were with leather,


After being found wrapped in each others arms together…


 


Young though they may have been,


Their desires for the other they both had seen,


The tongue, the mouth, what was in their pants,


Wish they could stay young like reborn plants…


 


Immoral though it may have been,


They did what came natural,


Each time a new begin,


Is it wrong to profess our love?


When we are young our love seems all there is,


Then it did seem to fit in like a glove,


Little did either have to use pressure or shove…

I remember those days well. Having to sneak and keep it all a big secret, fearing "the reputation" or parents wrath. The innocence of that shared love is something I have always retained vivid memories of. Thanks for the walk along the memorys of Summer nights at Lover's Lane...Great write!
Take care,
Sherry

We were not lost - just misdirected. Well done.

From naughty cartoons to achingly sweet melancholy... I can't imagine spending a day in your head... OR... it could be the single most fascinating place in the universe! I'll settle for thinking it's a mix of it all. You choose words that fit your thrust/your mood... but more importantly, Ed, you hold nothing back when you share your gut... and that's why you are someone I read. katy xox.
