Our Sons

11:58 pm. The day is coming to a close,

in a world deeply wrapped in sorrow.

But these faces before me;

my three boys—my sons.

They are the answer.

As are your sons—

and daughters too.

There is no promise of tomorrow,

but we can embrace the love

contained within today.

This is how we honor the struggle,

endure the sorrow.

Fully live. Fully love.

And at the end of the day,

fully kiss those cheeks. ♥️
