For my son
For my youngest son
Who I never stopped loving
======================
After years of not seeing your boy.
Came the moment of sheer joy.
There he was grown up and all.
Standing there straight and tall.
Your mother heart fluttered
Scared you would stutter.
The feeling was one of love.
The courage came from above.
Tears did not flow.
How hard it was not to go.
It was his brothers big day.
That is why you had to stay.
In your heart you was proud.
You wanted to say it loud.
He made it quite clear.
He wanted his mother not near.
You obeyed his wish with pain.
It seems all so insane.
Once you gave him life.
When you was his fathers wife.
But your love for him.
Stays in your heart to swim.
Forever there until the day
What will come sunny or gray.
That all your pain is over and done.
And all the suffering is gone.
CvdB,
