It felt so nice knowing I have a safety net…
I stayed safe because you held me down,
The concern in your voice made me realize
That certain mistake was not my own.
Sitting in bed now, January first,
Laughing at myself, I feel so silly…
Thoughts of you surrounding my head,
Hope all is well with you and your loved ones.
Missing him, still, it tears me apart,
Knowing somehow a distraction is needed…
I’ve seen the bottom of some bottles,
And walked through some very dark alleys at night.
Now, the silliness that is mine,
Laughing strangely at how I expected to feel and how I do…
Playing silly games with silly boys other than you.
Thinking sometimes about how things started,
A curtain of lies surrounding your world,
A curtain of dust surrounding mine.
And D sits there, aware, strong guardian, so tough,
Battling all harm of demons that may come my way,
Joyful somehow he is not alone anymore.
Still sitting here, writing your ode…
Replaying the message so I can hear your voice more…
Missing the silence that covered all when you spoke to me.
Dear Pet, a tribute to you…
A man who saved what another left behind…
A boy who claims to love with all of his heart.
