Another Adopted Son

His name is Christopher He is the child of my recently deceased best friend Without his dad alive He couldn't find a beginning or an end He stayed with me Night after night Finally he asked to live here Because my family love isn't a fight I love him as my own Just as all my others There's nothing more hurtful Than absent Mothers We set down the rules Some simple goals to achieve The death of Dan is real But we will start new, happy memories
