Today I Lost My Only Son...by Andrew Soldier.13June2013.

Today I lost my only son

 

I wish to had been mortally shot with a gun

 

my life force flowing out of me

 

for to grieve the loss of my only son is far worse than anything I've ever begun

 

to have walked through hell

 

to have stared death in the face and won

 

just to return and lose my only son

 

dear Lord how can I go on

 

now that my reason for living is gone

 

He was my joy, my hope, my dreams

 

the inspiration that gave me wings

 

I can not bear the weight of this cross

 

convulsing from too great a loss

 

my soul is now rent upon the fabric of time

I feel like the victim of a terrible crime.
