Lost Innocence
I remember the days
when I’d look at the sky
see life in the clouds
and birds, faces, planes jumped out at me
I remember when
I’d play games with
the clouds-
see who’d go faster
I remember when
clouds looked like
pillows, hair, and cottage cheese
I remember when
Now all I see
is white fluff in
a sky
nothing more
They no longer
talk to me
They no longer
excite me
How I long for the day
when I look at the sky
see life in the clouds
and birds, faces, planes jump out at me.
