Her innocence has been stolen
Walking in on her knight in shining armor
Destroying his life
One line at a time

She was the mother ever since she was nine
He- four years his senior was her reason for existence
She wanted- needed to make him proud

After that night
Her innocence was gone
Like the leaves in wall
Like a penny on the ground
Like a water atom
Pulled and taken away without even a glance back

Her knight in shining armor became
Her coke-head in s***** brass
Her innocence has been stolen
