Elijah's Song by Brent David Fraser, for a very special boy, my stepson.



Due to impassioned foul play, I haven't been allowed to see my stepsons Elijah, Rory and Patrick since the awful custody battle last June began. A major focal point of which was to get me gone... The protracted terrorization at the hands of someone's anger, bitterness, hatred and jealousy that led up to that day they were stolen, and since then, I have had to reclaim and develop or renew coping skills for the post traumatic stress I now deal with as the result of those horrors imposed on my family and me. One of those coping skills is music, so I made this video of a song written just for Elijah, but I hope that you viewers gets a kick or a nice loving note from it. I miss him terribly today and any day that he and Rory and Patrick and I are apart. The boys did end up back in a livable custody arrangement with their mother, my incomparable wife Angela... unfortunately our marriage didn't survive all elements of the fight. I will always LOVE and miss each one of them. I will also always miss the dog that was stolen and given away in this dramatic war against me using children as weapons, and the other two dogs we adopted and the big old bloodhound that remain in the home in which I no longer live.
Stay tuned for the videos of songs I'm writing for Rory and Patrick too, and the children's book about them about to go to illustration stages.
