The Lecher's Quest

Because the child needs to be loved,
her lips never scream,
Because of her need to trust,
her mind denies the pain,
Because she is vulnerable,
his will must be sustained.

Because she is innocent,
he betrays her good with evil.
Because of her childish faith,
her soul becomes his grandest quest.
Because her fate rests in his hands,
their secret rots within her breast.
