Poetry-Journey Back To Childlike Innocence

Life starts as nothing short of love and discovery,
Eager to wake and be alive,
Innocent play and belly rolls of laughter,
Eyes moist with pure life,
So much fun and kindness.

Then judgement starts the gears of fear,
The most loving tongue turns wicked, Knowledge depresses the glimmer,
Leaving isolation as the only comfortable place,
Within self. No harm done here.

To escape life one medicates or puts on the mask,
The pain and empty is just too heavy and cruel,
Get off and get away...down the drain,
Feeling all the aches of lifes' weight,
It's just too much! Please help.

Something is shifting differently,
Backpeddling just only to catch up,
All staring back and shouldn't have been,
Peeling away all of the layers,
Facing all with faith, trust and courage,

Hope and strength are lifting the spirit inside, Signs are all pointed in the same direction, Inside where He placed His spirit,
Reminder to stand up and live curiously, Purpose shining through each movement and moment,
Open and willing to try it again. Journey back to childlike innocence.
