The Girl in Me
The little Girl inside of me
Is Very Very small
Her arms are wrapped around her knees
Her Head bowed to the Floor
I left her there so long ago
Iv'e Shut so many doors
And everytime she tried to tell
I would shut a whole lot more
I have no right to keep her there
I have to set her free
One by one i open doors
As slowly as can be
I had to learn about her
I learned that she was me
This little girl inside myself
Finally is free

I have been writing poetry for ... oh my goodness I can count it in decades now....3 decades... Your poem is a very good poem. It tells a simple story and your imagery is crisp and clear.
I relate really well to the story in your poem and know that on occasions I have tried to express this same experience in my poetry but have not done so as clearly as you did here...
I am glad your little girl is free too.....!

Very good indeed !!!
However, please use commas and full-stops.
It would make your poem more ''readable'' and also put them into paragraphs (or verses)......
Well-done!!
