My Son
Personally I find it hard to write something so filled with emotion for villains. In this case, I've attempted to portray Jango as a father, a more thoughtful father. After seeing Episode II for the second time on Tuesday and trying to gather inspiration, I probably thought if Fett could really be emotional, then this poem would express it best. Don't take my word for it though; but tell me truly whether it sends the right message across.
Sometimes when we dream
we talk
to angels;
we believe
in eternal life;
we reach
and touch stars;
we believe
our wings can fly.
Yet as we wake:
shadows hunt shadows;
blood we believed the key
to live this lie
eternally.
And I want you to dream,
maybe you
can keep these memories
of you
standing beside me.
'Cause if there's one thing
you've made me understand:
this gift of dreaming
is forever ours to have.
And I want you to dream
of a light beyond this world;
where no pain and tears
will ever enter.
And I dream
that maybe someday
you'll have my strength,
and face more than steel
to see your heart;
someday,
my son.
