The Child Within

 

Forget the busy bus stations, that drive you fast to the crazy destination
Forget the voices on phones, polished, refined, embellished
Dance to the tune in your head - To the rivers that flow in you

Forget the ladders for a moment, pause and gaze into the blue skies
Look how she gets dressed in the twinkling black when the Sun turns dark
Look at them waltz, carefree, dancing to the tunes of their secret love

Forget about the rush for the laurels, find teh key to unlock the child within
Take the pencils, crayons, the world is one big canvas. The mind, a bigger artist
Paint Joy, Love, Curiosity, Kindness on every street. Let the crowds appreciate it.
Feel proud about it, but never let it slip from your heart.

Forget about the stench of sweat, the pain in your heart
Let the dolphins dance in your tears, let the tears flow
But dont orphan the child within. For all HE seeks is the light to burn
To burn bright, to lead. 

Forget the man you have become, the troubles you have inherited, 

The noise you have bred, 

Pause, hug the child within. Embrace HIM.
