My Son, My One and Only

My son, my one and only
To you, I give my hand
You left us grieving for you
This dark and lonely night
Take my hand and lead me
Leave me not in despair
Let me join you this present hour
For my heart can not go on
A moment more without you
My love, my one and only.

This is my thought these two years since my only son was murdered. It is a long and lonely road...
