Smile...

Innocent smile, lost
somewhere when we grew up
Is that reality?


Haiku, published as a part of

Haiku Heights, Prompt 41: Innocence

    Such a shame that that innocence can't last forever!

    And sadly, that innocence seems to be taken at younger and younger ages.
    Good one!

    Hey nice words. Innocence is taken away as our minds grow up. Some times we realize that remaining innocent doesn't let us achieve our desires, rather ppl utilize it and leave us behind.

    Really powerful Haiku. Loved it. By the way, one feedback.

    Your comments icon is so hidden that is is difficult for a new or irregular visitor to even find where it is. I will remember from now on but if you make it more prominent, it will be helpful for other new visitors.
