Innocence

i've lost it all

I lost my first tooth when I was six.  My first pet ran away two months later.  I was stung by my first bee when I was seven.  My grandparents got divorced when I was eight.  My best friend moved away when I was nine.  I broke my first bone when I was ten.  I got detention for the first time when I was eleven.  I got my first period when I was twelve.  I said my first cuss word when I was thirteen.  I saw my first R rated movie when I was fourteen.  I had my first drink six months later.  I started smoking pot when I was fifteen.  I had my first kiss when I was sixteen.  And now, as I stared at the crack in the ceiling, I felt him rip into me, and at seventeen, I lost the last true and pure thing: innocence.
