SCRIPTED SUFFERINGS
My life’s a movie, roll tape, lights, cameras, action
Playing every scene with pain as my main attraction
The life I live is more like a devilish transaction
Said I quit the drugs, but slowly I’m relapsing
Time ain’t on my side, I feel my time elapsing
Trapped inside my perception like Nathan in a steel

Inner Child
My inner child cries out,
a voice I buried deep.
For years, I looked away,
her pain ignored,
just as I was -
left alone in the quiet,
where no one answered.
She’s been screaming,
her anguish constant,
but I kept moving,
as if distance could numb,
as if silence could erase
the scars carved into me.
Now, I hear her.
Her voice is raw,
full of everything I tried

A letter to my inner child
I guess, if I must
face you again and gain
something – but
your gain is my gain. And
again I find you
here. Within me you rest
and I hold it all.
And you hold the wonder.
And you keep it
safe inside small hands.
The lights of a
thousand wishes glow in
the spheres of
your eyes, unbothered by
the blackness
that the world may force
upon

Learn to Trust
What child within us has not searched
The heavenly expanse
And felt utterly alone
In the face of its vastness?
Each heart beats alone
To the rhythm of its streams,
Yet each is connected in
The consciousness of dreams.
Seraphs stretch their wings to aching,
But knowing all the while,
It's not the wings or wind that lifts

Inner Child
Imagine feeling helpless, defenseless and alone.
Imagine behind each door new terrors of the unknown.
Imagine looking forward to the coming years ahead,
With secret, silent brooding and paralyzing dread.
My Inner Child has not recovered from pain buried deep inside,
She refuses even glimpses of the past we must forever hide.
More often now, I search my mirrored aging face
For

Dream Lover
I am the scent of Jasmine within indigo wind
I am purple painted passions sandy sultry sin
I am a thousand piece puzzle you love to dive in
Selecting collecting my peace my pieces again
I am the big fuchsia fish who you never caught
I am wonderful kiss that leaves you in lavender lost
I am the youth inside

my inner child is ageless
My inner child is ageless
This helps me get through my days
Not feeling guilty for being childlike
She encourages me to play, which I do
Every single day for at least four or five hours
Tomorrow is not promised
And neither is supper time tonight

My inner child
My inner child
Today I reconnected with my inner child,
I realised how she once always smiled,
Her innocent glowing face is now tear stained,
And full of expressions so pained,
I need her help to find out who Im supposed to be,
I'd long forgotten my own identity but she knows me,
I had to leave her

I walk
Hand in hand
With myself
Hoping one day
I can let the
Pain from the past
Disappear
And let myself
Be whole

That Inner Child Infinity Sestet
The story of my life is wild;
New interests suddenly sprout
outdated habits get tossed out;
Focus sharpens as the years pass
led by an internal compass;
Connected to that inner child,

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

My inner child weeps
My inner child weeps
It weeps for who I've become
I've become all the things I said I wouldn't
And I've left hurt run me
My inner child weeps,
It weeps for this isn't the life I wanted
A life of using people to get ahead
For I know how being used hurts...
My inner child weeps
For all the promises I

Inner Child Be Free
I enjoy silly and playful
Freeing my inner child
With a dash of naughty and cheeky
My inner child runs happily wild
I enjoy the escape of laughter
An escape and freedom from ones own mind
Laughter and fun allows one
To leave stress and woes behind
I enjoy being a trickster
A little nuts and a crackpot
A looney and somewhat bonkers
“Unhappy though….that l

Let's Catch Up
I think it's been too long since we had a heart-to-heart. I can feel that innocent child's anger and it's tearing you apart. You thought I forgot to help you get well, and away from pain, but I promise I did not. I have just been consumed with anger and sadness. I have been so

That Little Girl
I jumped around my room,not caring about things that matter
I was throwing things around and all they could hear was clatter
I sat in the car park smoking weed and drinking rum
I regretted everything I done yet did it again but was still disgusted of who I have become
I ran away and lied in the
