Just for a moment

Just for a moment,
My son sleeps peacefully.

I see my sweet heroic little boy. 

He used to have so much love for me.

Just for a moment,

I feel whole again and can breath.

Letting myself drift to happier days.

I was so proud to call him my son.

Just for a moment,

Im happy, content and filled with joy.

I live for these precious moments.

They are why I keep going

It's where I find my drive.

Just for a moment

I get a break from the horrific reality,

That my son, my precious baby,

Is dying slowly everyday.

Just fading away.
