My handsome invisible baby boy
I’d be proud to call you “my son”
If you were indeed mine, you would bring me such joy
From the moment your life had begun
I would raise you with guidance and a loving heart
And teach you to be humble and kind
You’d still have my soul, even if we’re apart
And you would never once leave my mind

We would fish together, we’d ride bikes and race
We’d learn and we’d play through all our days
For no one could ever begin to replace
The love that I’d have for you always
Even as years went past, my baby you’d be
Whether three months or eighty-three years
But lost from my eyes, you are now to thee
And I say that as I wipe my tears

I’m glad for my girl, but I can have no more
My invisible boy, you will stay
I oft think of all the fun that we’d have in store
And send thoughts across clouds marred by gray
I have no regrets, my life is complete
Yet, sometimes, I question in strife
If things would be better or left not as sweet
With a precious boy here in my life
