My inner Child

Everyone has an 
inner child
My inner child
Is apart of me
When it is quiet
I hear hew speaking

Sometimes she will cry
I do not know why
Why she feels this way
Only she knows why
She could be happy 
That is rare for her

I  would speak to her
Finding her reason
When she feels so sad
I listen when she chats
Then add my opinion 
Sometimes she feels better

Or she feels too sad
Just for a while
Then she feels stronger
I understand her
How  she is feeling
She is apart of me
My inner child
Will always speak out
Whether she is sad
Or she is happy
I know  her feelings

Dear Darlene, Alright my therpist mind found the title intriguing so I visited this poem. It beautifully explores the intricacies of our inner selves. I love how you call us to embrace and understanding our inner child which is essential for self-discovery and healing. Your artistic words reflect a journey of self-acceptance and compassion.
