Lisa Marie Presley is paying tribute to her late son on what would have been his 28th birthday.
Benjamin Keough, son to Presley and musician Danny Keough, died in July at the age of 27. His death was ruled a suicide by gunshot wound.
Now, on Wednesday, Presley, 52, has taken to social media to mark his birthday with a picture and a heartbreaking note.
In the photo, Benjamin wore a birthday hat as he sat in front of a cake decorated with candles. Balloons -- one reading "happy birthday" -- floated in the background.

"My beautiful beautiful angel, I worshipped the ground you walked on, on this earth and now in Heaven. My heart and soul went with you," began the singer in her post. "The depth of the pain is suffocating and bottomless without you every moment of every day. I will never be the same. Please wait for me my love."
In a follow-up tweet, Presley continued her message.
"....and hold my hand while I stay to continue to protect and raise your little sisters and to be here for Riley. I know you would want that. Happy Birthday my sweet sweet Boy. You were much to [sic.] good for this world."

A handful of the photos depicted Riley and Benjamin dressed to the nines -- presumably for Riley's 2015 wedding, based on her white dress.
Two other throwback photos were contained in the post -- one of the two on a carnival ride and another of a young Benjamin beaming for the camera.
As the son of Lisa Marie, Benjamin was also the grandson of Elvis and Priscilla Presley.
