Fallen
You say she’s fallen
no longer pure and pristine
A woman
long before you were ready
to deem her so
You say she’s fallen
not the way you taught her
to be
She was to be better
after all perfection doesn’t cause grief
You say she’s fallen
given in to unholy sin
Unthinkable
So wrong and completely against
the way she was supposed to go
You say she’s fallen
but you hide and refuse to see
the person
that lies within the child’s face
Its easier to cower behind idyllic belief
You say she’s fallen
out of step and hopelessly
off key
You say she’s fallen
I say she’s the human you’re afraid to be
