An Innocent Heart

An Innocent Heart

An Innocent Heart
 
Within these cold walls of stone
Lies an innocent heart left all alone
 
He lives in a world of everlasting night
How he prays his heart could take flight
 
The shadows on the wall his only friends
Will his lonely hours ever come to an end?
 
He tries to see beyond the steel bars
Carefully bandages his many battle scars
 
He has never given his heart to another
 He has never known a faithful lover
 
His heart still remains innocent and pure
 But the closing in of the walls he must endure
 
He never sees the sun high in the sky
But he has to believe that angels can fly
 
Daylight gently streams through the cracks
A winding road can he ever find his way back
 
How he longs to gaze upon the night’s stars
But the path to freedom seems so very far
 
Wonders will he be a prisoner till he grows old
These walls of steel and rock cannot hold his soul
 
His nightly prayers to God are softly spoken
And now his restless spirit is all but broken
 
Both hands and feet in shackles and chains
Are his many dreams of freedom all in vain?
 
For His life thus far has not been very kind
Hopefully he will find peace of heart and mind
