Grieving my son

There are some days I feel broken

There are many days I feel my heart will never mend

It’s true, I feel the time we should’ve had was stolen

Losing you forever, it’s a sadness that’ll never end

For I loved you before I knew you, in a way that only a mother can

And as you grew older, I finally watched you become a man

I’d always wished I could’ve taken your pain away, over and over, again and again

You bore pain and struggle with a real man’s courage, even from the age of only ten

I will always remember you as a super hero, a cheeky smile and “What’s for dinner, Mam?”

Remembering that too, I miss our talks and those goodbye hugs, (weeping again!), oh damn!
