My Deadly Child
May 9, 2010
Sun sets
As winter comes
And eyes flutter with moments left
Somber skin
As white as snow
Against ebony wings shadowing death
An innocent face
Of a child born
With the fate of stealing the life
Of men and woman and those unborn
The penalty, a chilling bite
Of an angel, born of death
And hate
Knowing not what his fate holds
Told of life and beautiful things
He’s left to break and never hold
His soft, pale skin
And eyes gently wild
Known as, always
My deadly child

Wow this is a beautiful poem and I'm terribly sorry for your loss. I'll keep you in my prayers. God bless you.

It's actually about my son. He died when he was two months old and I miss him very much, so I wrote this for him. It's also about the angel of death. The angel of death is like an innocent child who knows nothing, but still has to take on traumas of the world. Fate is in their hands.
