Inner Child
Explosion of emotions to sieve through,
How do I process them,
What do I do,
Let's play,
No, I want to be alone,
How did I get so fully grown,
Healthy boundaries didn't exist,
Run free,
The apple orchards,
The crumble and custard,
Skipping to school to see your best friend
Breaking a bone, soon on the mend,
Consequences didn't seem a problem as such,
Then boom, you think about everything you do,
The impact on me and you,
No longer justifying why I am saying no,
Walking away from toxicity,
Always live with a grateful heart,
Bed and food is someone else's dream,
Be you, the world will adjust,
Kindness is a fundamental must.
