It washes away
It is leeched slowly
The Halcyon days
Turned to Halcion nights
The wonder of the world
Stained mundane with time
Potential narrowed down
To the eventually probable
Timeless summer days ground
Into endless winter nights
Freedom of exploration
Chained in responsibility
The innocence of life
Taken with experience
It is leeched slowly
It washes away
It fades

I really liked this one. The message is at first a bit cryptic, but it gradually makes itself clear. Nitpicker that I am, I must say that I felt that certain stanzas should have been grouped together, because they had similar thoughts in them. I know you were trying to keep the form of the text, but still. In specific:
"The Halcyon days / Turned to Halcion nights"
and
"Timeless summer days ground / Into endless winter nights"
"The wonder of the world / Stained mundane with time"
and
"The innocence of life / Taken with experience"
"Potential narrowed down / To the eventually probable"
and
"Freedom of exploration / Chained in responsibility"
