Inner Child

[ Inner Child ]

Mind wonders 
Heart flutters, eyes sparkles

She watched herself running in the meadow
The air was crisp
Her soft long waves bounced as she skipped 
The morning rays kissed her blushing cheeks
Little fingers touched the tall grass gently

Butterflies everywhere
Danced around her
Tiny flowers greeted her
Sweet lips flashed a smile
She loved to be there

A sanctuary in her mind
When she wanted to hide away
As the harsh reality drove her there
She saw herself dissolved
Once again, into that six year old
Running free
Towards the arms of the loving meadow
