Love Poem: The Departed Son

The Departed Son

I love you much, 
Billy Patrick, 
And I miss you so much more! 

I hope you're resting peacefully, 
I'll see you soon at Heaven’s door!

Until we reunite, my son, 
Keep an eye from above on your so
Help him along his way!

You left him way too soon,
But that was God’s design
Even though you didn’t want it that way.

Let Eoin feel you still exist with his heart, 
He won't judge you
Coming eternally from inside.

That, you never intended on, 
Leaving him so soon
From the way that you departed.

But, things happen so unexpectantly.
It was a state of confusion 
That took me to the illusion
That you were still here the whole time. 

It’s time that I let you go, 
My son
Rest peacefully
Smile, I’ll see you on the inside.

RIP., William Darnell Jr
