Between the woman and the child

Lately I've been feeling strange...
like I don't even recognize my fears, desires
my motivations and my dreams.

Lately I've been feeling like everything that is happening to me
is unreal.
That all of a sudden I am a character in one of the wacky dreams from the movie "The Cell"
where fantasy and reality collide in the most freakiest way.





Lately there is a struggle inside of me.. where woman and her inner child meet, 
yet they still feel very awkward towards each other.
They want to connect.
They both want to walk hand in hand.
They both keep staring at each other
from far away.


I still want to play dress up.
I still want to sleep until late.
I still want to dance naked and daydream
with my eyes open.


Yet, I am prepared for the challenge.
I am prepared to live the dream.
and, deep down i know, that soon
without rush
The inner child within
will walk toward the woman and wont be afraid to hold
her hand.


And they will not let go.
They will never let go.

And the woman that I am
will always dream
and will always look for an excuse to dance naked.
And will surely keep playing dress up
even if sometimes will have to be
in my mind.

La nina y la mujer se encontraran y aunque habra cambios indiscutibles y algunas prioridades sean reajustadas...no tendras q escojer pues pues ambas iran de la mano en este tu mundo cambiante en esta tu nueva aventura. Jamas tendras q dejar de jugar "dress up" porque eso es parte de quien eres y lo haras aun mas. Siempre habra tiempo para bailar desnuda siempre habra tiempo para ti, la nina mujer. Haras el tiempo. Se q asi sera. Aunque nada haga sentido aunque el miedo te invada y sientas q tu no eres tu y q tu cuerpo ha sido ocupado, nada dura para siempre y cuando otra vez seas tu...todo eso q hoy desconoses de ti, te hara falta, pero poquito a poquito te iras integrando y todos tus sentidos y uno extra te haran entender q todo cambio y sacrificio a de valer la pena y bailaras....bailaras sonolienta o con imsomnio. Sola y nunca sola te arreglaras y alguno q otro acxesorio cambiara pero igual te hara brillar, quizas mas radiante mas mujer pero nunca menos nina. Ya veras q la realidad supera los suenos y q aunque los miedos nunca desaparescan, seran tu motor para seguir bailando. Tqm. Erika
