Sometimes I sleep
Dreaming that you’d see
What it is you mean to me
I cry at night
Thinking of the sight
When you turn your back and walk away
I have nothing to say
And as I watch you drive away
I hear screaming
It’s a child
Begging you not to go
Saying “please don’t leave”
Then I wake up
I think about the picture
And the kid was
The one inside me
Begging you not to leave
But that’s only because
You don’t know what you mean to me


i too hear the desperate voice of my own inner child… i think it is not only a good thing to hear,, but a better thing to respond accordingly… don’t leave…..
