One Less Angel

One Less Angel

A Poem by Brandon Mathis
"

I Love You Son You're Always In My Heart In Loving Memory Brandon Joseph Mathis 10/29/12 - 10/29/12

"

Today was the worst day, so far

Nothing’s going my way

Everything’s getting too hard

I wish that just one day

You would walk in my shoes

Maybe then you can see

Why this life is so hard for me

 

We all have bruises

Mine are going to be permanent

Carved in the concrete

So I say this is good night

But I never wanted to say good-bye

I wish you were still in my life

I would make you laugh so hard

That you would cry

You will always be a piece of my heart

 

They say that Jesus has your soul

In my dreams I have you to hold

Some days I don’t want to live on

I want to give in

I’ve seen how one life can begin

Then how quickly it can end

Please take this pain away

Give me a fantasy to escape

 

You take one of my angels

 But I still have one left

I will keep him close in my arms

To my other angel

You will always have a home

In my heart

I will keep you both closes

Never will my sons be alone

 

These bruises that rise to the surface

It is not hard to see

That I am falling

The life that is called

I can’t go on

I’m just not that strong

What did I do wrong?

For this man’s son

Was not ready to be called
