Power and Jewels

by Mornings Light

This is a poem from Lucius' point of view. He really wants to change but is it too late? It's not that long, please read it! Thanks!

Power and Jewels

If you had power,
How would you use it?
I had power,
And I abused it...

I could've done such noble things,
Instead I chose the diamond rings.
But the rarest jewel is you my son,
Sincerely, regretting what I've done!

I lost the real power of mine,
You're the one for whom I pine.
Glistening like a diamond there,
I never understood your pained stare!

I never really hated you,
But I never really loved you too.
He took the emotion from me,
From the woman who set me free.

I'm now encaged again,
Is this just the end?
My beloved son I shall fight,
Only you may bring back the light...

If you had power,
How would you use it?
I had power,
And I abused it...

Authors Note: I hope you enjoyed this poem. I wrote it originally for another person who is also a power-hungry villain. I really like this poem and think it reflects Lucius Malfoy really well. This poem reflects the regrets that Lucius feels on neglecting his duty as a father and loving Voldemort more than his own son and wife. I hope you can understand it and please review it as I love reading reviews, thank you for your time!
