A tribute to my son, Jesper!
He is my life, my hope for tomorrow
The time has past I see an end to my sorrow
He lives in my head and he fills my days
With unbelievable sunshine rays
He makes me feel happy - inside I feel warm
I dream of him resting in the crook of my arm
Forgotten are all the sleepless nights
In it's place I have found the soothing lights
Swept away is the mindless and boring matter
That filled my days and made me foolishly chatter
Instead I have this beautiful boy
Who is my firstborn and fills me with joy
He is gentle and tender like an ocean wave
To be able to see him feels like what addicts crave
He is mindful, well-tempered and oh, so sweet
He has all the boys in this world hands down beat

He was born to me, on a warm summer night
I was so young and crammed up with fright
Inside my body, we were joined flesh and blood
We had a connection thicker than mud
He was a part of my life but not for dreadfully long
I had to leave him while he was so tender and young
I traveled all over and I had no particular goal
He came along; he was part of my soul
I missed him like crazy but the word had been spoken
I walked away, I left him; the pain was my token

I grew much older and so did he
Forgotten was something he would never be
Others came and a family was started
While I carried the dreams of what I once had departed
I limited myself I sold myself short
I couldn't forgive and I guarded my fort
I held on to all love and sincere connection
I cheated myself I had no perception
But time is suppose to heal all wounds and pain
At least so they say but I still felt the chain
I have given up finding an answer or clue
It happened; I can't return or go back to start over anew
Instead in the future I with pleasure invest
Gone are the emotions and feelings of jest
I have learned that life gives us the things we request
Merely once we are prepared and competent at best
My sleep now comes easily; there is no more distressing
My sweet little boy has found me; my God gave me a blessing!
