Title: "Lost Innocence"

In the realm of teenage dreams,
Where innocence and hope gleams,
Lies a darkness deep within,
A world of pain and sin.

The laughter fades, the smiles wane,
As shadows cast their cruel refrain,
Hearts once pure now stained with sorrow,
Lost in a world they cannot borrow.

The weight of the world upon their shoulders,
As they navigate life's treacherous boulders,
Struggling to find their place,
In a world that's lost its grace.

Tears fall like rain in the night,
As they battle demons with all their might,
But the darkness creeps ever near,
Whispering doubts, feeding on fear.

Oh, the tragedy of youth so pure,
Lost in a world so insecure,
May they find the light within,
And reclaim their lost innocence again.
