A/N – This is a collection of poems about some of the characters on Day One.
Jack
A game, a challenge
His family in a dream
Reunion and hopeful future
As the midnight hour began
The call from the agency,
A window left unclosed
A worry, tale of two worlds,
For this man, Jack Bauer
Mistakes were made, old wounds opened
Fragile friendships strained,
Hours later, no end in sight,
As he sinks deeper into Hell
Friends became foes, foes became corpses,
And the crazy cycle never relented,
But a sign of hope in the midday,
Loved ones found in illusion of safety
Secrets revealed as the butcher appeared,
Hidden below, unlike the world assumed,
An anniversary of a tragic mistake,
Marked by the crumbling of families
Traitor revealed and then anger released,
Horror at the fallen mask,
As one lay dead, another divorced,
One wept and begged for forgiveness.
