My Dear Son

Abraxas

My Dear Son:

 

 

 

Where are you?

 

You're lost, done, finished?

 

What have you done?

 

Fought, loss, gave up?

 

What have you learned?

 

Courage, sympathy, nothing?

 

Why give up?

 

Thinking about later rewards? New Life's? Lies?

 

 

 

Your muscles are weak

 

You are lost in this heavy dark mist

 

When was the last time you've opened your eyes?

 

Why do you hide in your cave?

 

What are you afraid of?

 

The Sun? Moon? Life?

 

 

 

The search engine it's alive and burning

 

Why the despair?

 

Of falling? Scratches? Scars?

 

The answers are simple, no catch

 

Just slip and slide, as a child frolicking in a warm summer afternoon

 

I am ready to hold you, to see you, to let you love and live - Be Yourself!

 

Strength doesn't come in numbers

 

Superman is dead, we are our own heroes

 

No capes, no super powers

 

Only human beings

 

With scars, bruises, tears, fears...

 

 

 

Sharing our lives together, only in paper

 

We don't fight the same battles

 

You don't let me get involved with you

 

Push me away as far as you can

 

For what?

 

To protect me? For love? Or rather selfishness?

 

Hold my hand, trust me!

 

We can walk together through the darkness

 

Use me, abuse me, talk to me, just let me IN!

 

I need you, I want you! I don't want to lose you!

 

I'll hold you till the end of times

 

My dear Son...
