My Son

Cuz you're not here, I'm left alone
Only to deal with the fact you're gone
Late, cold nights I cry myself to sleep
Tears stream steadily done my cheeks
Oh, how I wish you were here in my arms
Now and forever to save you from harm

Just as I seem to fall asleep
All of my fears and hopes come back to me
Dreams of holding you with hope in my heart that
Every time I see a baby I won't fall apart

Loving you has been hard
Only more everyday
Colton, you mean the world to me
Kites,schoolbooks,and planes I want you to see
Even though I can't tell you to your face, I want
  You to know, I love you, I miss you,
   You're always in my heart and I'll
    Learn to let you go

My friend wrote this for me one night when I couldn't bring myself to do it. The next one I write is the one I wrote.
