innocent she was
in her resolute silence
innocent she was
in her underlying posture
innocent she was
in her gullible gestures
innocent she was
in her worthwhile moments
innocent she was
when she thrived and dreamed
innocent she is
when she shed those pearls
innocent she is
in her emotionless words
innocent she is
in her dead eyes
innocent she is
in her submissive forms
innocent she is
in her nude covers
a sculpture of innocence
she was, she is.
