I laid him down
In a playground
Upon which he could
Never play again
My son, my friend
My sadness overwhelms me
About what might have been
And the innocence in
Those eyes and the purity
That presence designed
It lingers across time
On the inside
I mourn for you my son
I grieve for all I have become
And left you so alone
"Daddy is that you"
You called in the night
But I was no longer there.
I had laid him down
In a playground
Upon which he could
Never play again
"The world, " he said
"Had spun one way"
"Then ceased it's movement"
"And began to spin the other"
From this sorrow of
Abandonment, my son
My child, both inside
And out
I laid them both down
In a playground
Upon which he
Could never play
Again. ..
There are times in our lives eveytime we walk down
that line will lead to embarassment, anxiety and dread.
We already know the end of the line. It was once said instead of misery let's go eat pie.
