Prose for Jackson


Jackson


The first time I gazed into your eyes

I knew true unconditional love existed

You made me believe in God again.

For how could such a blessing have been given to me by anyone else?

The way I felt was overwhelming

Love, fear, hope all rolled into one

You are now a boy, not a baby

yet when I look at your face I see the innocence of youth.

Inquisitive and intense, you are my wild child

I cherish that about you

I see your trust in myself and in life

and I want to shelter you

The existence of you made me believe in fate

You are my fate

You are my love
