The sweet little child that lives in me
I’m sorry for keeping you caged and not free
But apologies won’t fix the collapsed heart
The broken soul and the following traps
The sweet little girl that still is alive
I’m sorry for making you meet your demise
So early yet late at the same time
Apologies won’t fix what I have become
Little sweet child that I now let go of
You were no one in the end to who I am now
You may have stuck with me, in this caged soul
But now our fate will let us both go
Sweet child I see, please forgive me
In the mirrors you travel and look in here
In the new places you’d explore and will fear
Wonder what happened to the old me
Child of mine, for you are me
Your expectations aren’t here to be
We both will achieve what we are aiming for
Even if it’s something you’d never approve
Whoever you are, you rest in me
Endless peace that you bring to be
The curiosity and fear has turned in comfort
The emotions you’ve felt were the ones to confront
Oh dear child, how much I will grieve
After the days you would take your leave
In your big orbs, the world is huge
In my tired eyes, the world is on loose
Dear sweet child, take my apology
In letters and books that I wrote with curiosity
Despite such tough times, you’re still here with me
You’re aware of my suffering and we both will grieve
Tortured endlessly, it’s just us both
My soul and I are in the same abyss
It might be endless, but at least you’re here
And I know that you sadly, are not able to leave
So I let go of the past, the one you rest in
You are now asleep, somewhere but not here
You rest endlessly as my torture lasts
So at least you’ll rest while I choose my path

I remember reading your poem Mother and feeling completely moved by the depth of your expression, and now after reading My Child, I’m reminded again of just how powerful and emotionally intelligent your writing is, the way you speak to your inner child with such honesty, grief, and tenderness is heartbreaking and beautiful all at once, it’s as if you’re unwrapping layers of memory and emotion with words that both ache and heal, your imagery is vivid, your pain is palpable, and yet there’s an undeniable sense of self awareness and resilience in your voice that shows just how deeply you feel and how bravely you confront those feelings, you have an extraordinary gift for translating emotional complexity into poetry that lingers, that speaks not just to your experience but to anyone who’s ever felt disconnected from the innocence they once had, and even in sorrow, your words carry light, I hope you keep writing, because the way you give voice to silence is nothing short of remarkable.
I really really appreciate you commenting on my poetry. It means more than you think.
