Portrait of Youth

I can see him with my eyes closed,
and in every part of my whole being,
Every part of me breaths him,
he is life, vivid, and captivating,
He is young, kind, gentle, and strong,
He is six-foot two, at fifteen,
he is my own, my love, my truimph,
my joy, my gold, and my hope,
He is my son .... born through me,
our link is forceful,
In spirit, he has the power,
to grant my every human sorrow,
and bless me with his youthful trials,
He is love, power, hope, and life,
He is mine ....,
my reign will not let go of him,
he is a solid print on my heart,
his effects are tremendous,
He is an eye-catching portrait,
of youth,
Alive and becoming,
loyal, honest, and fair,
Bright, clear and genuine,
he tries my heart,
with sincerity,
and I am blessed to have him,
He is ... My Travis, my always,
my truimph, Love!
