Letter To My Inner Child
Dear Little One deep within,
I know you've been neglected and I want to take better care of you.
You’re at the heart of my soul, you’ve always been there.
I love you and want to make up for all the years
where you should have been pampered, nurtured and treasured.
You’re a diamond that I should have protected wholeheartedly
and polished daily with pride through the years.
Now I can’t bear to know you’re still hurting
while I have the power to heal the wounds you’re still carrying.
You are the most important part of my life really.
Without you I am barely a shell.
I am asking forgiveness for neglecting you over the years
and ask you to trust me. I’ll never let you down.
You’re the light of my spirituality and give meaning to my life.
I need you to shine brightly.
I need you as much as you need me.
I’ll never neglect you again. I love you.
I’ll pamper you and take you with me everywhere I go.
Trust me. I’ll be there for you.
Love always.
