Three promises I made
Before the needle stuck your vein
Years and years passed
Miles and miles steadfast
All the streets
And silver sheets
Malcolm, I still ask why

Happy Birthday. This poem was inspired by Ozzy's '
Mama I'm Coming Home'

I'm glad to see you putting what you feel into poetry again. And I'm grateful you're channeling grief into beauty. And I believe it's important to keep asking the questions. The search, entertaining mystery, will take you somewhere. Look where it's brought you and so many others already. Would you say it's a better place?
You've been a long way since the day this photo was taken...But look at you now. :)
This will always be something I do - as long as you will write it from it, I'lll come here to visit your heart when I miss it.
Press on - and take care.
