This gift...
An angel in my arms.
So innocent and new.
The universe has spoken.
A new life is born.

Ne'er a sound does he make,
As I look into his eyes.
Two perfect blue sapphires.
Reflections of the sea,
And never ending tides.

Indescribable love.
I have never known before.
I am his protector.
A she-wolf with her pup.
Until the end of time.

Time has become my adversary.
You wish to spread your wings and fly.
To pursue your hopes and dreams.
But I am scared to let you go.
1, 2, 3, ... Jump

Life continues on.
The angel has found his love.
An insatiable lust.
That takes over his being.
Like honey to a bee.

The angel has fallen.
By demons of the night.
They taunt him with euphoria,
That only the needle can bring.
Just one more hit...

My little boy is now a stranger.
His arms are marked and bruised.
I wish for his survival.
The strength to begin anew.
Just one more hit...

The deception and deceit,
Are more than I can bear.
Where is my little angel?
When will he return?
Just one more hit...

The vultures are circling.
Waiting for the end.
He promises to quit.
To fight the disease.
But the darkness pulls him in.

Just one last hit...
Wishing for my angel to come back to me...
