Life paints such a fine picture even at a young age
setting up its fantasized goals for life's final stage.
Some children, a house, boat, maybe a car or two
but also their is faults and never comes with a clue.
.
My boys... 'Oh what life, they have breathed into me
for life no longer exists, for the youngest "Was set free"
Where do I let this heart pour out? now that it is lost
no decision in the outcome, once the coin was tossed.
.
Just getting to see the world, meeting on its own ground
on an early spring morning ...is when my son was found.
Close to the edge of the woods he was lying in the brush
with a shotgun between his legs, my heart begun to crush.
.
They say "He took his life" that one early spring morning,
he talked to me the night before and never gave a warning.
It's now been 2 years; know that I really miss my Son,
and those trips we took together, 'Lord it was so much fun.
.
I sit here and think about that boy, every single day,
while tears fall and my heart continues to slip away.
I think about the goals I had that no longer mean a thing
for my life ended too, "On that early morning in spring!"
