Poem to the Inner Child

Inner Child Poetry

In me I see two souls,

One childish and free,

The other dull & trapped.

The childish side is made to behave,

And told to properly react.

Soon a box of views is thrown out,

The curious gaze of that child,

is no where to be found.

The trapped side grew stronger,

But it held grudges no longer,

The numbness reached the soul,

Making me lose all control.

This world has always been like this,

Malice and prejudice still exist.

Though everybody is made of same clay,

Hardly some reacts in humanly way.

Bogus opinions are preferred,

Rather than real ones.

Fake people being available in tons.

What suffers the most is that inner child,

Whose eyes were soft with heart mild.

Now that heart is cold as ice,

Before opening up with anyone it thinks twice.

-Amrinder

Everyone has an inner child within them. But in the process of growing up, the child somehow gets lost. Lost within preformed opinions, fake and bogus views.
The world hates anything and anyone who is different and unique. Everybody is made to see the same perspective. The one with unique view feels dumb. The inner child soon matures with no sense of curiosity it once had.
Remember the world will always try to fit you in a box of their opinions, but under no condition you should let it overtake who you are and what you stand for. You were born to be unique and different. Having childlike innocence is not a weakness, it is the biggest strength in this world of fake people. So never let that inner child die.
