The Inner Child

The inner child is free.
Free to love and be loved.
She has hidden for a long time from fear,
fear from hurt and rejection.
I will hold and love her.
She is my friend.
We will laugh and play togehter.
At last she is happy and her tears
are now tears of joy.
She is a very special person,
a child of God, to be loved.
She has a glow about her now.
Her face is like a candle flame
glowing with love.
If you listen, you can hear her
laughter.
The sound of her laughter touches
deeply into your heart.
I will love and hold her dear to my
heart until the end of time.
She and I will be special friends
always.
She now knows she can trust me to
take care of her, to love her,
and to protect her from harm.
We will explore life together,
play together, laugh togeher,
and even cry together, holding
each other close.
She, my special friend, who once
was buried because of fear and pain,
is now free, free to love and
free to be loved.
Welcome back my inner child.
