053

Those little and wandering deepest of dark brown eyes Asked, “Do you regret me?” And I thought of:

The mists come morning before bridal veils. The stupor and stumble of a Beijing bender. His mother, on a mountain, with only our echoes. My own mother’s pancakes the dawn before I’d left

I wandered:

The neon of that Tokyo night, never forgotten. Those three old men, prior peach tree and Meng Po, Her soup, they’d forget, the camaraderie, I’d never. So to, the blood, mud, and every brother that'd had my back.

He waited. I continued to think of:

My grandfather’s arrival from sea on a ship, And the same ship taking me to sea for my own story. Dreams above clouds and lands for feet, foreign. Every intimacy, connection, and cold night, warmed.

I’m ready.

But the promise, one and alone, held atop my heart, For my son - you’ll always have me - and, “No,” Never a regret, quite the contrary, only eternity.

And until his own, path and plight, Lead him away, as the miles took me And prior, the word “sacrifice” ceased to exist.

    - H.H. (2023)

Verse 1: when you were born i saw galaxies in your eyes you clutched my hand like you knew I was lonely you have never let go at night when you’re sleeping you visit planets in rocket ships gravity doesn't apply to you you can fly and we have always known chorus: little moon boy How do glow so brightly? your sweet smile can light up my darkest dark little moon boy I can’t keep you here with me there might a kinder world Hidden between the stars but little moon boy while you’re traveling send me a picture of you smiling wherever you are.

Dear baby I didn't birth,⁣ ⁣ You're still my son no matter what the world says. You'll always be my kiddo, in the big and the little moments, in the ups and downs. I promise I'll love you with a tenacity that can't be matched. I promise that I'll be there for every bruise and broken heart, and encourage you when you're down. I promise I'll tuck you in and sing you bedtime stories for as long as you'll let me, and embarrass you whenever I can. I promise that I'll never take the place of your mama, but I'll play that role, too. I promise I'll never change my mind about being in your life and I'll fight for you and your dad, through thick and thin, good and bad. You're my family & I'm thankful for you.⁣ ⁣ #dearsonofmine⁣ #momishmoments⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #withlovefromm #withlovefromme #dearson #formyson #bonusson #momdiaries #momdiary #onlinediary #foryou #momish #writersofig #stepbystepparents #motherhoodquotes #honestmotherhood #thisismotherhood #mylittlefamily #parentstories #bonusmotherhood #bonusmom #lifeofabonusmom #mommydiaries #momblog #ourcandidlife #mytinymoments #stepmomsclub #marisadonnelly #diaryofabonusmom #blendedfamilies https://www.instagram.com/p/COjUCuUlWRg/?igshid=p3ksn2crhfra
