What happens when a child?

What happens when a child does not get to be a child

For many generations

What happens when the wounds of lack of containment

Leave scars

That rip apart the following generations

Or when the repression of longing, need and feeling

Lays too long buried

Do we see signs of chaos and madness?

Can we look to what the child may be trying to say?

Oh soul!

Where did you go

When they told you rainbows were not a sign of magic?

What happened to you

When they told you to be good

And stop asking too many questions?

Do not listen now

To the shallow and the haters

What do they know?

There is a long road to travel

For many of us now

Unravelling the hidden truth

So let the threads unspool

And if the suffering becomes a pool of tears

Drown in it

Until all the grief is spent

And you finally find the energy to rise

Feel the warmth of blue skies

And open you heart to a life

In which the rejected ancestral child

Finally finds her home back

Within the center of your soul
