Clawed My Way Out

I've been down a black hole, the toughest journey, I have been through the fight to save myself ...to face the inner you... for everything I believed I was the me I thought I knew I had to reconnect ... my inner child guided me through we fought for our survival a feeling familiar to us both I wasn't going out...with a madman the madman who tried to destroy my everything, my life he had no idea, who I was... to whom he was dealing... my grandmothers' and mothers blood flow through my veins with it a courage, a strength, a deep embedded feeling, this criminal madman his life he strayed, his blame... my inner child, our belief, our perseverance, our struggle to succeed, I have lost a lot of the precious in my life,...but the gains out way all of this (indeed), unless, you have experienced the evil, is it difficult to express let alone for a child to comprehend ... Do not ever lose touch with your inner child for this is truly you for me my life could have gone either way,inner child, our inner strength I so love you
