My Son Will Soon Leave Here


My son will soon leave here.  I find this intolerable.  I can’t imagine life without his continued daily presence.  He has been the light of my life for 18 years.  My only comfort is that he will be and is a part of me.  The little boy I cherished will always exist as part of my memory, part of myself.  And the grown man will always be part of my daily awareness, no matter how far he travels.
