Innocent


I was once as innocent as a flowering child,
As innocent as the very seed it grew from.
I outgrew my innocence--the innocence I used to wear.
I shed my innocent skin once I got too big.

Now that the innocence is lost forever,
Nothing but another flowering child's hand-me-down
Does that make me guilty?
