Thoughts of a Life Broken ---------------------------- **Thoughts of a Life Broken** **Disclaimer-** I do not own Harry Potter and never will. Please review and tell me what you think! **oOoOoOo** I have been watching this madness For far too many years Watching his spirit breaking And wiping away his tears Through the darkness I heard him Screaming from the dreams In the day he is different And not what he seems I wish I could help him And take away the pain But the hurt is never-ending And drowns like freezing rain Slowly he is fading away Drifting from this place I see it clearly in his eyes And read it clearly on his face The monsters that haunt him Are eating away at his soul And the sleepless nights are finally Taking their dreadful toll He walks the days blankly Staring through expressionless eyes Not seeing what we see But that which we all despise His life has been terrible Like one stretching nightmare Trapped by a prophecy spoken With the world he has to bear Those eyes which were once sparkling Are now faded and dead A voice once used often Is lost without a word said The darkness is approaching Threatening all we hold dear And he is trying to stop it But is caught by a burning sear Families are destroyed and lives lost Night is falling too quickly And the shadows are rising from Places dark and sickly War is upon us It has been building for so long It all comes down to him Trying to find a place to belong No home to go to No family to call his own Only death trailing closely And the darkness known I will stand by his side Until the battle is right here And I will fight proudly For the boy who is near For he was the candle That we could place our light And he was the leader Leading us to fight And on that day When darkness was falling I gave my life for him And answered true loves calling And I watched his eyes Fill with glistening tears As he held my empty body And let surface his many fears And I smiled As he laid me down to rest And faced the final terror And sat for the final test Love was shining from him And was filling my heart As I watched him finally Fulfill his part And as I faded from him He held me, and I cried too And with tears streaming, he said “I will always love you.” **Thoughts of Hermione Granger** **As sweet death took her** -->
