Farewell my Son, you are safe now,
a path for you is cleared
your flesh no longer feel
the air I breathe
now a child of silence
listening to the voice of spirit.
The few short years that were
a journey of life can begin
you reached your summit then
so peace is now within
my thoughts transcending into dreams
dispersing my tears into mist.
My grief is everlasting and
passionless, it would turn
a statue to dust and fill
a desert with tears
I walk alone
facing life without you,
I miss and love you dearly.
The End.
