"Nothing ever ends poetically. It ends and we turn it into poetry. All the blood was never once beautiful, it was just red." - Kait Rokowski


Oh you sweet and innocent child

With your head filled with fantasies

Free to be loud, crazy, and wild

Unworried about the worlds scary strategies

They haven’t torn you apart yet

Not afraid of these scary occurrences

You’re still there in your safety net

Unaware of the traumas that everyone discusses

All of the happenings shown on the news

The shootings, murders, and kidnappings

Society is something that’s quite like a noose

All tied up with deceiving gift wrapping

I hope that you may stay this way

And that you can be shielded for one more day
