Innocent Poem by Daniel Wittfoth

Here it goes again
well okay--played this part before
Nothing new
I know every line in this old scene

Should be mad
but it's like I am so use to it
dosen't seem to phase me
Funny how I am thinking
some things just weren't meant to be

What I wouldn't give
to somehow turn back time
to feel like I did before

This moment, this time, this place
everything about it reminds me
Of better things
better times, better days gone by
When I was
innocent
And if I could ever get it back
I would hold it
Never let it slip away
innocent

What was that
excuse me, thought I heard you say
These tears are distracting me
wait a minute
it's becoming crystal clear

I remember that feeling
kind of numb. kind of out of it
I somehow lost my train of thought
this is the part when you say
so long, goodbye

This moment, this time, this place
everything about it reminds me
Of better things
better times, better days gone by
When I was
innocent
And if I could ever get it back
I would hold it
Never let it slip away
innocent.....
