I have a child who tried to take his life a couple of years back
There is no larger pain for a mother to know that her son wants to leave this world.
It breaks my heart to know he still thinks about it.

It pains me when he rejects my help or anyone elses for that matter.

He had a wonderful childhood, loving parents and grandparents.

In his younger years, he was such a vibrant and happy kid. I think it all changed when he was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at 5 years old.

When dusks awakens and dew presents a lazy morning
My mind vagabonds to tender moments, where our bodies entertwined

Whenever the breeze plays its melody trough my soaring wings

Provided that you know who's boss
Entertain me, cater me, on my time with grace
Worship and shelter me, don't make a fuss

You are my minion, my loyal companion, my nutcase

Makes no difference who you are

Anything my heart desire will not come to me

Overworked and burnt out the galaxy glitches

Fate is kind, the song goes
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of
Their secret longing

Well I've lived long enough to know that is not true
Spent most of my adult life longing for You
Prayed you'd come to no avail
Wishes, love and effort to just see it fail
