inner child

inner child

A Poem by shelby williams

as i grew my child stood still

as i heard the music my child covered her ears

as i moved on my child stayed behind

my child is me in so many ways

i curse her, my angel child

her naive ways, uncouth latching on

i am adult,i am free

she embarrasses me

i have forsaken her

she knows not how to be

i am confident

this inner child, this child

i wish her away, i wish her stronger

she knows not what to do

her guidance compromised

why must she be part of me

how does pureness live within me

how could i leave her scared and alone

i must fetch her

she must be included

my inner child
