For My Son, As I Leave

Poem by Lala





My boy, my heart, my morning light,

You’ve given meaning to my nights.

Each laugh, each tear, each step you’ve made,

Are memories that will never fade.


Though distance now may stretch its hand,

And life may weave what we don’t plan,

My love for you will always stay,

A compass for your every day.


I leave, but know, I’m never far,

My soul is with you where you are.

In whispered winds, in starry skies,

In every dream behind your eyes.


Be brave, be kind, and always true,

The world is better with you in view.

And when the path feels dark or steep,

Remember, son, my love runs deep.


So go and shine, your story’s begun,

Forever proud of you, my son.
