In memory


 Tearfully I wonder if the choice was right
Questions run rampantly through my weary mind
His little face that solemn day replays throughout my lonely night
What emotions must have burdened his fragile soul
Every day I pray that he understands my reasons why
How my heart broke seeing his fear and pain 
I couldn’t save him or comfort him; no matter how I tried 

Pain and sorrow follow me along my journey now 
Heart broken in tiny, sharp pieces scattered all around 
All the memories of what he meant will guide me through somehow 
Gone so young, so much left to live
How I wish God could have granted me more days
In each day I try to find a message of his love in nature’s majestic view
Wondering if his spirit is around; do you hear what I say 
Now my days I must face with one less loving friend 
Though your journey brings you far away 
Your memory and loving bond will never end 

Rest in peace my dear sweet boy 
Travel with the angels now 
I will carry on some way 
Somehow

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly
