Disclaimer I don’t own Buffy, Angel or any of the other characters, “although I wish I did” but I don’t, they all belong to Joss Weldon. But don’t worry it’s still rated PG-13.

Authors Note – It’s just a short poem piece about Angels life.

Special Thanx – Special thanks to my Fire_Star6 she’s the one that got me into fanfic, so this is for her.

 

 

      Face of an Angel

                                                 By; DemonCat3

 

 

I heard tell of a boy with dark hair and pale skin,
Living an eternity because of a demon within.

A pact with darkness he made signed in his blood,

Knowing he shouldn’t but believing he should.

His soul was tainted his blood turned black,

Humanity and love this creature did lack.

A century spent doing his masters bidding,

The Gods creatures he delighted in ridding.

Upon one night a child of innocence he did slay,

And for this crime he would finally pay.

The wise ones would punish him for the sins he had done,

His torture was guilt for his humanity they’d return.

A century more he lay in agony silent,

Alone in sorrow and no longer violent.

Until one evening a young woman he meet,

Fair and strong in her ways she was set,

Her purpose was clear, her faith set in stone,

Aware of this the demon refused to leave her alone,

His purpose was to protect her or so he insisted,

But aware of his past at first she stubbornly resisted.

But soon over time her trust of him grew,

Now side by side fight these two,

Where once would have been adversaries now resides lovers,

Together for now they protect one another.

Unfortunately though their time together didn’t last,

Soon resurfaced the dark-side of the vampires past.

Once more free of any conscience or pain,

The demon went to torturing and killing again.

Heart broken and despaired by the present situation,

The chosen one had no choice but to condemn him to damnation.

Now deep in the darkness where faith controls faith,

Where even heavens light can not penetrate,

The one with the angelic face suffers day in day out,

He has no peace of this I have no doubt.

While he is tortured in Hells dimension,

His love is heart broken and filled with pension,

She suffers with sorrow for she blames herself,

For her lovers demise and no else.

She sees no hope in her love to return,

And for this reason her soul continues to burn.

Just as she relinquishes all hope and gives up tact,

He escapes his prison never looking back.

Physically weak and mentally shattered,

Filled with sorrow, mistrusted, bruised, and battered,

He unknowingly lashed out at his love,

Unaware of what was what.

She refused to harm him though for she still cared,

And loosing him again would be more then she could bear,

But fully aware of the danger he would pose,

Her hope of the situation had not rose.

The look in his eyes was violent and dim,

She had no choice she chained and bound him.

Composing himself he soon broke free of his chains,

Finding his love he told her of his pains,

She held him tight as he wept in anguish and fear,

Seeing him in this state was more then she could bear,

Now together once again they protect one another,

His strong hearted slayer and her angelic faced lover.
