Child's Play

Sorting out my feelings at 3am

My inner child plays
In the sand box of my mind
Sifting memories 
I hold her, remember

That's a proper one to say...our inner soul can still make a journey to the past even if the body can't!
Great read☺

Hey, really awesome! 'My inner child plays, in the sandbox of my mind'- beautiful lines and splendid imagination. You did it, Maya!

This poem reminds me a lot of Jungian psychology, specifically his archetypes. One of his common archetypes was the child, the eternal innocent who lives in a paradise of potential, which definitely sounds like the inner child and the sandbox you're describing. Part of psychology is development, but that also requires remembering and learning from past events and self forms. 'Sifting through memories' and 'I hold her, remember' speak to me of these things. You've crafted a very Jungian poem here, I dunno if that was your intent, but you did it and I enjoyed it very much.
