Son

Son

A Poem by Rosauro Brillantes

It's been about two years now, since I've lost my son

Not having him in my life is where my life begun

To take a drastic spin right into the worst conclusion

To possibly hold him one day is such a hauntng illusion

The thought of me being a father, forced me to be a man

But now that I've lost him, am I still one? I guess I am...

To lose a life so precious under circumstances you can't control

Is not the duty of a father, and it should never be his goal

So where do I stand after 2 years of this depressing loss

Still on the same side, but soon this murky river I will cross

And if I'm lucky- when I pass, I wil see him up above

Hold my child in my arms, and cradle him with all my love I miss you son

This is really touching.
Read "The Shack" it is something i really think will recover you, or just forgive. (that is if this is true, which i think it is)
It's your same senario.
But seriously, I really recommend it to you, it may change your outlook on everything.

Beautiful and emotional piece.
Very good :)
