To a Child Lost and found

Oh, child in me come out and play.
I'm tired and lonely
everyday.....
We had to cope to get along,
which meant I had to be very, very strong.

There was no room to sit and cry;
all I did was try and try
to make things right and keep my smile
and that is how I caught denial.

I made you, child, disappear!
and took over, full of fear!
I knew I had to hide it all....
Life seemed so hard; I was afraid to fall.

So, on I went straight ahead
always acting like you were dead.
for many years, I played this role,
going here and there, with no real goal.

Till one day with help of friends,
I learned you lived, I could make amends.
So forgive me, child, for stopping your fun.
And you and me, kid, lets take a bow!!
Cause we're finally together in the here and now!!!!!
