A tree now fecund, a fruit ripe with time,
a child’s innocence has begun to sublime.
A mind confused in the beauty of life’s rhyme,

the loss of their little angel is too much to handle.
A thought of maturation makes them blind,

And i left the ending a little abrupt because we all have our own outcome at this point in life. |
