INNER CHILD

The inner child
I’ve never known
The child ignored
And silenced to stone

The hope and possibilities
My inner child had
Were never fed to bloom
Not acknowledged good or bad

So the tougher I got
And stronger I seemed
My outer child stood tall and alone
Some think I even grew mean

But deep within my aching soul
My child wept and shook in pain
I went as far as begging for love
Which seems all done in vain
