Like a Red Balloon

Innocence
like a red balloon
floating
into the abyss of the forgotten

You took her away
before I knew who she was

Away
Tiny hands released
She slipped through my grasp
I fell into yours
To my horror she was gone

You took her away
I barely knew who she was

Floating
Rising tides of my fear
You pulled me apart
Every secret exposed
She was no longer near

You took her away
I wish I could have known her

Away
I never even got to say

Away
Cries absorbed by the abyss

Away
like a red balloon
