Those little and wandering deepest of dark brown eyes
Asked, “Do you regret me?”
And I thought of:
The mists come morning before bridal veils.
The stupor and stumble of a Beijing bender.
His mother, on a mountain, with only our echoes.
My own mother’s pancakes the dawn before I’d left
I wandered:
The neon of that Tokyo night, never forgotten.
Those three old men, prior peach tree and Meng Po,
Her soup, they’d forget, the camaraderie, I’d never.
So to, the blood, mud, and every brother that'd had my back.
He waited. I continued to think of:
My grandfather’s arrival from sea on a ship,
And the same ship taking me to sea for my own story.
Dreams above clouds and lands for feet, foreign.
Every intimacy, connection, and cold night, warmed.
I’m ready.
But the promise, one and alone, held atop my heart,
For my son - you’ll always have me - and, “No,”
Never a regret, quite the contrary, only eternity.
And until his own, path and plight,
Lead him away, as the miles took me
And prior, the word “sacrifice” ceased to exist.
Verse 1:
when you were born
i saw galaxies in your eyes
you clutched my hand
like you knew I was lonely
you have never let go
at night when you’re sleeping
you visit planets in rocket ships
gravity doesn't apply to you
you can fly
and we have always known
chorus:
little moon boy
How do glow so brightly?
your sweet smile
can light up my darkest dark
little moon boy
I can’t keep you here with me
there might a kinder world
Hidden between the stars
but little moon boy
while you’re traveling
send me a picture of you
smiling wherever you are.
A light for my badly missed beloved sons.... Like every night, there is a light for you my sons... You will find the way back home. We all love you and think about you ❤️ ❤️ - you are in our hearts!! I'm the father of 2 sons which were taken against thier will in last October to the US. 2 kids, which lost thier family and friends here in Germany over night, which were taken away from thier father and which need be in a foreign country without all what they love. Together with my family and friends I fight for the return of them back home to a happy and save future. I publish this post to give my sons a voice and to made this case public and hold the remembering of great times.

Dear baby I didn't birth, You're still my son no matter what the world says. You'll always be my kiddo, in the big and the little moments, in the ups and downs. I promise I'll love you with a tenacity that can't be matched. I promise that I'll be there for every bruise and broken heart, and encourage you when you're down. I promise I'll tuck you in and sing you bedtime stories for as long as you'll let me, and embarrass you whenever I can. I promise that I'll never take the place of your mama, but I'll play that role, too. I promise I'll never change my mind about being in your life and I'll fight for you and your dad, through thick and thin, good and bad. You're my family & I'm thankful for you. #dearsonofmine #momishmoments . . . #withlovefromm #withlovefromme #dearson #formyson #bonusson #momdiaries #momdiary #onlinediary #foryou #momish #writersofig #stepbystepparents #motherhoodquotes #honestmotherhood #thisismotherhood #mylittlefamily #parentstories #bonusmotherhood #bonusmom #lifeofabonusmom #mommydiaries #momblog #ourcandidlife #mytinymoments #stepmomsclub #marisadonnelly #diaryofabonusmom #blendedfamilies https://www.instagram.com/p/COjUCuUlWRg/?igshid=p3ksn2crhfra
