MY SON WILL SHINE AGAIN

"MY SON WILL SHINE AGAIN!"
(Written by: Michelle L. LeBlanc 10/14/2022)


As I've been plugging through
Most have seen me as strong
But it's been like a dream 
Since you've been gone

I keep myself busy
Letting your memories inspire
Trying not to suppress
But harder since the campfire 

Last weekend was good for me
With your friends, we reminisced
But it brought reality to this heart 
Now I need your face to kiss

Not feeling as much like a dream
I'm realizing that I'm awake
But I will not give up living for you
That would be my biggest mistake

You'd want us to find a way to heal 
So I will process thru this pain
One moment, one day at a time
My Son Will Shine Again!!
