i'm there now

everything I used to believe

I no longer do.

my childhood innocence is gone.
the boy in me
is finally old.

it took a lot to get me
there.
but i'm there now.

the spark has died.
the wonder
is no more.

nothing matters.

I understand
the world, at last.
no heart
is pure.

the rose colored glasses
are off,
the optimism
of love,
the promises of youth
live in me no more.
