Remember

Remember when you were a child

How good it felt

Just to be alive

To see the stars and moon beams

And ask a million questions why

You had a natural curiosity then

An openness to life and knowing

But along the way

What forces arrived

To block your way

To inner knowing

Peace

Self love

And freedom?

Were you told

No you cant do that?

Or worst of all

Don’t question me

And don’t ask why?

Remember that as a child

You had the keys to the kingdom

You saw what you saw

You felt what you felt

You sensed what you sensed

Before the adults told you

No

You are mistaken

It isn’t that way

Listen to your heart now

Don’t be lead astray

Trust and believe

That life loves you

And it is more than okay

To be your true self

To dance in the rain

To be guided by your pain

To trust yourself

To feel no shame
