healing the hurt inner artist child

dear younger self,

i know you are hurting, i know you are sensitive and i know the outside world has cut you deeply.

i know you’ve been made to feel like you aren’t worthy, like you aren’t a valuable being in this world.

i know you’ve been hurt, i know it’s been hard.

i know you’ve built a wall and i know you’ve learned to cope.

i know it still hurts deeply. i know it all, i see it entirely.

i am standing here, as an adult, a grown up, a person in this world,

and i see you. we are still here. standing.

i know you are still hurting, i still feel it.

you can let it out now. you can feel. you are safe here. i hold you now and forever. i am not letting go.

the world is a safe place for us, it really is.

i honor you now, every day. every minute, every breath and with every move i do on this planet.

it’s sometimes still a dance of the familiar and the unknown. we’ve held these patterns for so long.

but we are moving back to our core, to the deepest purest part of who we truly are.

i just need to let you know, that i have never ever in my life forgotten about you.

their words don’t matter anymore now,

not one single bit.

your life is beautiful, i made sure of it.

our life is full of beauty, connection, creativity and joy.

we get to be curious, we get to live and breathe as our truest self.

the world is a beautiful place, we move as ourselves and the world mirrors it back.

i love you so much, you are all that really counts here and now and in the future.

i am so glad you and i have found our way back to each other.

this connection is all that matters.

we’re both here now.

there’s nothing else to care about.

i am here for you now and i always will be.

it’s your time to shine now.
