how he sits there
listening to a song
that reminds him
of the child
that got away
but today
he sits there
singing along
headphones on
his face lowered
hands grasping head
choke filled breaths
strangle lyrics
singing words
that once had
meaning
his heart bled
He sits up
with a sigh
brushes the tears
from his eye
and tries to pretend
the song didn't end

Just walked past Hubby on the computer, head in hands, listening to Drops of Jupiter by Train remembering, I'm sure of it, our 20yr old Son who has been estranged to us for 4 years... The tears never end :(
