In the world of innocence, where wonders abound,
I stand, a humble soul, with eyes wide and round.
Naïveté, my faithful companion, by my side,
Guiding me through life's twists and turns, as my trusted guide.
Oh, to be naïve, in a world so complex,
Where simplicity reigns, free from any pretext.
Unburdened by cynicism or jaded façade,
I dance through life's rhythms, feeling joyously awed.
With open arms, I embrace each new day,
Seeing beauty in the mundane, in every display.
For every smile, every laugh, brings warmth to my heart,
Unaware of the shadows that may tear us apart.
But as I wander through this innocent haze,
Darkness approaches, a shroud in its ways.
The world reveals its secrets, its laye sers unfold,
And my naïveté begins to lose its stronghold.
I see the greed, the deceit, and the pain,
The masks people wear, their motives profane.
Yet, in my heart, a flicker of hope remains,
That in the face of adversity, goodness sustains.
