#71 Musketeer Inspirational Challenge: “The Inner Child”.

INTRO:
This is a fictional poem, it explains a man who has
been locked up in a prison tower and he awaits his
death. Within that space in time, he fell in trance with
his younger self, and here it begins:

Aye, staring at my reflection
At the dark side of this walls
My knees to my head
My hands tied to my feet from falling
My heart dropped in time…

C’mon sweet child;
You hold me in your arms
For I know not myself this hour
It frightens me to be in this tower
Lingering shimmer, greyer and older

I feared, I lost in you; who I was
Then you smile; to re-live my soul;
To feel the warmth of your innocence
Kite me in roses of your garden

As death siege thee nigh
Be no regret, be no shame
For I am you… and I leave to be free.
