Description Deep inside my mind a child sleeps.
In the twinkle of my eye she'll play.
Though grey and dull the world seems,
She finds new colours every day

As I weary eyed rest my head.
She springs forth to dream once more.
And though my body lies in bed,
My mind is free to soar.

Deep inside my heart she stays,
Finding wonders now and then,
As I walk through grey days.
Wishing I could sleep, and dream again

As I grow up she stays the same,
Amazed by wonders all around.
She'll turn a flicker into a flame,
And make music out of every sound.

Deep inside my mind a child lives.
And I hope she always will.
I need the colour and joy she gives,
So I can share her every thrill.

She laughs as I sip my coffee cup,
Thinks it's funny I look refined.
Yet as I grow old I won't grow up,
At least not in my mind.

Very nice it is very true. Sometimes we have to wake up the child within us to play~

Hear, hear. Nice imagery in this. I think you could use more meter to really make the rhyme work, but I'm not an expert there so my only recommendation for it is read
