Done to death

//Done to death

Done to death

It died; Before
It was even born.
Conceived to its death
By the ones that’re gone.

Fear was the trigger,
Knowledge the enemy;
Learning was its undoing,
Wisdom the weapon.

Innocence could’ve saved it,
Sincerity protected it,
Curiosity kindled it and
Love could have nourished it.

It died; Unfed,
Uncared for, By
Memories that turned sour…
By the ones that’re gone.
