Son
Maneuvering through life,
Rushing every moment,
The son crept from under the ground to greet me in an orange blossoming glow.
Although I was frightened,
And unsure of every move,
I couldn’t help but be captured by the emotionless peace.
Many had warned me of the harmful effects,
After looking at this majestic element,
… But I could help but indulge myself.
Eventually my eyes finally broke
The lock
But I couldn't see.
as i looked around my world
what i onced called beautiful was now plagued with a leprosy
everything i once thought was inspiring
was spotted and incomplete.
nothing was or would ever be of equal strength
Nothing would ever be as special.
now i live in a world of dullness as my muse takes its leave
from me
.
although i know you will never returned to me
and your artistry will never be like the first time we met
i have no regrets
You were my son and I would never change our time together.
