Cradle The Inner Child – Written Thursday 30th December 2004 (Aged 29)

Cradle The Inner Child

the pressure mounts
it might be from within
but as you dream of money
i wonder where to begin

i look at others
and i am filled with admiration
their approach and their simplicity
calms the situation

i look at me
a mess of many tangled things
fighting what’s on my mind
constantly tripping over my dreams

i know it’s there
i can almost feel and touch it
keeping a lid on it is difficult
how will i ever make it?

the pressure is there
the panic is far too wild
it’s just because i get scared
and i need someone to cradle the inner child
