Lets take a walk down memory lane.
Let's go back to when this all began.
I remember your sweet lil face once so radiant and full of life. Your eyes wide open waiting to see what the word had to offer. Playing with rocks and chasing lizards. You closed your eyes and swung as far as you could. You climbed the highest stairs and made it to the top of the largest slide. Oh darling…you felt brave at that moment. Those were the best days off your life. They were quickly shadowed by the darkness you never foresaw.
Lets take a walk down memory lane.
Let's go back to when this all began.
You see you built this wall around you. Not to keep people out…but to keep yourself locked in. you feared the imperfections would show. Don’t blame yourself lost girl. How can your innocent soul know? You were tricked. They said it was a game and why wouldn’t you trust your family. You were a child, less than ten years old. You did what any child would do: You played. One by one they would take their turn while you were positioned on your knees as an animal. That was their game…It was a game that all animals play. Oh sweet girl. Your innocence was ripped from you. It was torn apart and destroyed. You had no hope at this point. You realized the cruelty of the world was that someone would always come along and hurt you. If it wasn’t them someone else would try.
Lets take a walk down memory lane.
Let's go back to when this all began.
You were taken from the harm and brought to a whole new world. Those eyes wide open looking to see if there was hope in this world after all. For a while you believed there was but you couldn’t be sure. Something told you not to let you guard down. You taught yourself that there was one person you could trust everyone else could potentially hurt you. Your cute face disguised the ugly truth. You were worried that people would suspect. Often described as a handful wreck less and impulsive. You owned up to all of them. They kept you safe for a while. You see what you didn’t know at the time was that the wall you had once built was now starting to crumble. As you got older you regressed. You became a frightened toddler who needed protection. You began to throw tantrums and more than anything you wanted to cling on and once more feel protected. Your insecurities would always be there creeping in the dark. Hold my hand dear girl. Let me help you.
Lets take a walk down memory lane.
Let's go back to when this all began.*
Remember the girl with hope in her sight.
Remember the world still has a lot to be seen.
Remember the lizards and remember the rocks.
Beauty is an imperfection. Peek from the crumbling wall. Look out and see that this is your life.
It’s scary but it’s also filled with beauty.
