Stay calm

Rest silent

Listen to your heart

Ignore the disturbance

This noise

Does not belong to you

Sweet child

 

The clatter resounds

Around you

Know it is not your place

To be held

In their over reaching

Palms

 

Hold your breath

And wait

Patience is your friend

The winds will soon arrive

To drive the poison

Out

 

Now exhale

Let go

Learn to hold your own

Your life lays before you

A journey they will

Never know

 

Your mind

Is your scythe

Keep it sharp

And close to hand

So that when the time arrives

You can cut the dead wood

Out

 

Your spirit is your

Sunshine

Call upon it

To cast the darkness

Out

 

Keep your head

Held high

Your conscience

Higher still

Remember that hyenas

Will not leave

Without their fill

 

Every forest

Has a clearing

Tho is may be hard

To find

Just trust

Your intuition

And leave

The lonely haters

Far behind

 

You are not alone

I am waiting restlessly

When the day arrives;

The time for us to meet

I will greet you with a smile

And a loving hug

 

We will reflect

On the journey

We have taken

To find our rightful home

I will hold you

Sweet child

I will share with you

My blood

 

We will dance

Until we finally

Become one

Just like we always

Have been

If you had only known

You were me

Before we ever met

 

I want no more

Than to thank you

For everything

You’ve done

 

Without your strength

And self belief

I would not exist

So now that I have

Found you

And you have looked

Me in the eyes

I would like to warmly

Welcome you

My sweetest inner

Child.
