Poem share time

So I'm normally all about fashion and trends but today I felt inspired to share a poem in this here forum. It's not for or about anyone, just a momentary bout of creativity. Enjoy folks :-)

Dear Inner Child

Reading Maya Angelou, remembering how it was

Working up to the time one day that you will be the boss

Work real hard at school, they say, the world is in your hand

But at your age, it shrinks inside as you lift your foot to stand

Dear child my word to you is this, as I wipe my inner tear

It hurts when you're rejected by those far and even near

With every step it's harder still with every door that's shut

Never good enough for those that push you further in that rut

Who made the rules of right and wrong? Are we not all made the same?

So here I stand ready to play and win this real time game

We all wish to be better in hindsight is oh so dear

Though days will pass with thoughts of self, of sorrow and of fear

We all have those, I'm sure that's true, I will never dare to doubt

Hence forgiveness, love and tenderness are freely issued out

Dear child I urge stand up today and sing that song you sing

It's beautiful to see your soul, expressed in art within

I'll tell you now, you'll get no joy from holding yourself back

Rebel a little from the woe that always made you lack

Run if you run, paint from the truth and tell the world your tale

Child you will learn, the truth’s the truth, love sweeter than a sale.

But hear my words and don't look back this moment is your own

When you look within to what you want and build your inner throne

No matter what you think you are or what you try to be

The only way to get their love is to be what you should be

I need to say, you need to hear that whatever gets you down

Please step outside with head held high and wear that regal crown

My dear, sing for love, sing freedom sing for all the joy it brings

Cos I hear the words of Angelou: “ I know why the caged bird sings.”
