Dedication To Mothers That Lost a Son

As my baby boy walks home a single 
gunshot and god angels
calls him home. 
As he sit upon his throne, his angel wings 
laced in chrome. His spirit comforts me, 
as a moth in a cocoon. Taken away from 
me way to soon. At first touch, I'm my son 
first love. My son died without a chance to 
live, resting in heaven from
another man's sins. My son physical body 
might be gone, but his spirit will forever 
live on. Every time my son smiles the sun 
rays pour out. Sending love upon us, 
reminding us how much he loves us. Until 
the day we meet again, in God I trust.
