Here lies a boy, physically no different from you,
The quiet one everyone thought they knew,
He would smoke so often he couldn't stop coughing,
Even after everyone's two cents, he was putting nails in his own coffin.
He couldn't shake the thought he was so different, he saw the world no matter the difference.
He saw the world's pain through other people's eyes, as if he was ontop of the world on a skyrise.
He wanted to be your hero no matter the price, to save you and all from their own demise.
He tried to save all within his control, but feeling so different it just made him a fool.
When the time comes for the pardon of his passing,
Do not shed tears for he is in heaven laughing,
Finally joyful he will cry out!
Mother I've missed you! with a great shout!

Through the years he was your number one fan
He was always just your boy classified with the number of a man.
When that dreadful day came he ceased to grow,
By thoughts aged as if He was on death row.
Time will pass without stopping,
Nevertheless he will never stop hopeing.

Hopeing for one day the ones he loved would turn,
From the way of the world, oh! his heart would
burn!
To one day see the ones he held most dear,
For tommorow they will live without fear
For one day they will feel no different from you,
Their life forever changed from a boy they hardly knew.
To jacqueline Marie. May finding you the way I did not be etched into my mind as the only scene, but let me be bombarded with loving thoughts . Let the light shine to defeat the darkness. Il shall dream of peace with you in heaven. One day mom, I miss you a ton. 40 years to young.
