Walking Through The Woods

While walking through the woods
I feel like I’ve been here before, but when I am not sure
 There is a presence I can not explain, but I hear a spirit call my name
 The wind blows harshly upon my back as if the spirit is coming in for the attack
 I turn around to see a familiar figure standing in front of me
The figure says nothing he just looks at my feet
I look down to see a tombstone engraved with words in gold

“To my beloved son”
John Jackson
1990-1992

A tear wells up in my eye as I fall to my knees

I realize this is my child taking the eternal sleep
