I Had a Son

 
I
Last night, for the first time, the sun rose.
The world became glorious and fair
A candle was lit in my darkness
And it grew 'til it shone everywhere.

He grins, and I know that he knows me.
He laughs and it touches my core.
In his eyes shines a sunlit enchantment,
And it isnt night anymore

With the closing of one endless chapter
A beautiful new one begun
Now happy is the place that I dwell in
And I smile
for I have a son.

 
II
Last night for the last time the sun rose.
Red lightning blocked hope from my view
Through the black fogs that muddled my vision
I felt him....And somehow I knew.

Fire and shaking and bleeding.
Horror and grief and a tear.
Until now I have found myself painless....
Until now when I find myself here.

The closing of one heartfelt chapter.
Another lifetime of anguish begun.
Revenge is the thought that I dwell in.
And I weep
for I had a son.
Back to Poems
This is a poem about Angel and his son Connor. If you dont watch the show, then this'll probably make no sense to you, haha. I wrote this at the end of the episode when Angel was taking apart the crip. I know that Connor is back ect ect ;-)
