Inner Child

Inner Child
Are you disappointed?
… didn't I do well?
Were it the wrong ones I acquainted –
did they cause this living hell?

Or was it you I neglected.
Pushed away your happy voice.
Shut my eyes for your bright colors –
Like I had no choice...

Please don't feel unwanted.
Please don't hide.

I'm so sorry for everything, my sweet, crushed, broken, beaten, ignored and neglected inner child.

I made this drawing with pencil in 2010 on A4 paper. My girlfriend wrote the poem today.
We did another collaboration a few days ago, you can find it here:

We will be doing more collaborations in the future!

Hope you like the post?

Wow Sander ! This one is super expressive... * __* the body language of the large creature is so touching and poignant, specially around the face and the hunched position <3

The tiny creature's eyes are very tiny, but you managed yet to pull a very emotive look out of them ! amazing !!

And that poem... how very raw * ___ * It makes me want to hug everything . __ . Your girlfriend and you both are very talented <3 Amazing post <3
