Letter to My Inner Child.

 

My child I cry when I see you,

Your face just points to the wall;

My emotional senses feel you,

Do you now hear my call?

 

The abuse you suffered when younger,

Is past, it's over and gone;

Please forgive the people who hurt you,

Come to terms with all that was wrong.

 

It was ok to have felt unhappy,

It was then that you travelled alone;

But now you've grown much older,

You're the best person I have ever known.

 

Awaken the mind that is within you,

Be at peace in your world, that is 'Now';

I know I don't have all the answers,

I can only advise on the how.

 

Your journey now begins with a footstep,

The way will be hilly, quite tough;

But go this way, be happy,

Content you go with my love.
