[hometext] => I wrote this for my eldest nephew who has had
a rough time. And because I love him and am very proud of him. [bodytext] => At fifteen years of age, you are born. Born, perhaps prematurely, into manhood. Your life till now has not been one of which nursery rhymes are made. More like a heavy metal lullaby. You have lived the life of a fighter. An exhausting, seemingly endless uphill run. Evervigilant in your stance, your guard up and unyielding. Your eyes never leaving an unpredictable, and unscrupulous opponent. The fight is over now. The glory is yours , so revel in it. It is time to drop your guard now, my precious, bravehearted one. Let me take your hand, and allow me to proudly raise it high above your head, in honor of your victory. The title is yours to wear with pride and forever yours to keep.
