My Boy

My boy is gone
But for how long?
He left me with
A list of songs
And everything
That he holds dear
And all he took
With him was fear
Of what’s to come
Of the unknown
Of what’s been done
And now he’s flown
Into a space
I hope is right
That will keep him
Safe at night
So he can start
To face the pain
And leave behind
A life of shame
For when he knows
He’s not alone
Perhaps that’s when
He’ll call this “Home”
