innocence lost

By Usayd

Is anyone innocent? I really wonder.
I look at my friends… and ponder
Are you truly genuine or fake like plastic
To melt with heat and dissolve in acid
Then whose to say innocence is needed
If the experience is to be well heeded
Learn lessons where due - lifes’ purpose
Make the same mistake again, in surplus
Just so there’s enough to go round
I’ll end the day without a sound.

    oh i like this one - much better than the last - but the ending sounds a bit forced rhyme-ish…

    Perhaps, although the point I was making is relevant to me at least.
