I am reading a book and my son is dead
I do my job, I do it well, and my son is dead
I cook a delicious meal and my son is dead
I’m listening to you talk, I really am, but my son is dead
the seasons change and my son is dead
objects remain, yet my son is dead
I wish it could be different, but my son is dead
I try to be a good person, but my son is dead
sleep comes, but just before it does, my son is dead and it is unbearable
I wake up and my son is dead
I’m sorry that this is repetitive, but this is my life
because my son is dead
