Innocence return
For many years I have waited.
Waited for you to return to me as you promised.
The more time that passes, you slip further away.
The anger and rage I feel from your betrayal is eating away at my insides.
I expected more from you. I thought I knew your soul.
I can’t continue to exist in this way. The lack of your breath suffocates me.
I can see you staring back at me from the mirror.
I know you are in there somewhere.
Innocence come back to me.
Note: This was a challenge for Picture it and Write

You have to write something on a picture that they post.
MY THOUGHTS ON THE SUBJECT ARE AS FOLLOWS 
Glad you did this, because I would’ve thought this was amy lee of evanescence making sure her makeup was right for the video shoot.
great flow and emotional impact, bo
Ha! Thanks Dear.
nice. i was thinking you were going with youth. maybe that’s just me projecting myself. 😉
Youth would have been great in here as well. I am just in a funk mood today! Thanks for reading.
This is interesting post and I liked the song meme that you started. Can anybody else participate in it?
Thanks! I copied the Meme from a friend of mine. You are welcome to do it! I cant wait to read what you write.
You have worked on the picture really well … good words here !!!
Thank you so much! That is nice to hear.
I love the dramatic and deep tone to this poem and it’s certainly something I can relate to. Great work!
Thank you! That is nice to hear!
I really like this line: “The lack of your breath suffocates me” I had no idea she was yearning for innocence until the last line, yet when I read it again knowing this, it made perfect sense.
Thank you so much for reading!
That’s very good. I especially like the line about the lack of breath suffocating.
Thank you so much!
Ooo, lovely! Very sinister and dramatic. I like how she’s trying to coax it back. I loved your perspective on this week’s picture. Thanks for contributing!
