I spent my youth angry and hateful,
Of the world, the people, the very audacity of existence,
I put so much hate and fear into the world,
I fed the wolves with anyone I could,
The bus plowed crowds under my control,
Year on year,
My hatred grew strong,
My anger unmatched and unchecked,
A monster I was called,
So the very worst I became,
But then the world ended,
Or rather began anew,
I found a light in the dark,
My son,
Every moment I've known him,
I've known nothing but love,
He gave me a gift,
One I never deserved,
I cherish it close,
Tighter than my chest,
I once lived a life,
To make demons shudder,
Now it is changed,
That me is no more,
My son has come and I've found my light,
I hope for you all,
The darkness shall end,
My gift to the world,
Is to undo my hate.
