Dear Vessel of Life
Dear Vessel of Life,
Let your inner child be free
but first you must see
If your inner child comes to be
They will be just like you and me
Am I in a place they can be free
Or have I created an endless sea
If I start to gloat
They struggle to float
If I am filled with shame
They will certainly feel the same
They will try to swim
But our waves will beat them from within.
Pour out onto this earth
A clear and happy child birth
For the pain we hold so near
Will be that our children fear
Oh dearest child of mine
give me a sign
That you are strong and free
and I will make you come to be.
