"Inner Child"
I think I know you
Complexities abound
Riddles and magic
An enigma, throughout
The world hated you
Belittled your spirit
Yet you stood back up
So bold, and so fearless
I felt all your trauma
You've endured much strife
I gave you much comfort
In the darkest of nights
In patience, I waited
When you closed the door
To pains of the past
That which hurt to the core
And now here we dance
You're wild and you dream
In ideas and in joy
Free thought, creatively
In mirrors you twinkle
My youth in aged eyes
Inner Child, How are you?
Only Love, no divides

But learned to sulk and pout.
I
With my galoshes on and umbrella open,
I carefully walk to my car in the rain.
In my head, my inner child is jumping in
