That's an electric fence,
to shock you if,
you try to break in.
Who told you that?
It's true,
they turn it on at night,
and then,
it shocks people.
Who told you that?
My mom.
A child's eyes declare,
it must be true,
My mom said so.
It's not,
but how can I say,
Mom lied to you?

Ah... the shattering of innocence... the silence of the truth... finding the balance between what's real and what's true. Beautiful poem. :)
