O' My Son

O’ my son

You have made me a believer

In all the bright and luminous colors

That before, I only saw as a dark blue

Yes, my boy, I owe this all

To you

O’ my son

For such a long time, I was lost

In a place where even when the sky was pitch black,

I could never see the bright white of the stars

Before you

O’ my son

I still see blue, just no longer in a melancholy fashion

Because your eyes are windows,

And I see nothing but a vast and cloudless blue sky,

In you

O’ my son

I cannot wait to look into that black sky with you

When it is riddled with brilliantly lit stars that I now see because of you

No, I cannot wait to tell you just how patiently they’ve waited

To shine and glimmer white

For you

O’ my son

You are still so young

But you’ve shown me how full of colors life can be

But out of all of the colors in the world

My favorites will always be the ones that will burst

From you
