She was innocent
That is the whisper
the voice carried
on the wind
of the world
Her cries go silent
She is left alone
in the night
she once loved
now it has taken
its innimitable toll
the unpayable price
and she is gone
what she was
what was taken
can not return
now we are alone
in the night
she once loved
with her heart
pure as it was
wrapped in the dark
that can destroy
that innocence
She loved Him
So said the whisper
What is gone
Was a heart
oft used
oft broken
a crack in hope
did he steal
the beauty of her
spoken on the 7 winds
from the 4 corners
of what has been
of who has gone
She was innocent
that is the whisper
the voice carried
on the wind
of the world
