A/N: this is a poem, that I find helps tell maybe a possible ending for the Ron/Hermione
romance. I'll state this know, depending on how Ron is characterized, I like him. I like him in
this case, but the poem was not written because of Harry Potter and such. It was written and later
applied to the ideals and such. I suggest diving into this one head first and analyze it to get the
most out of it. Thank you and good night.

**Crashing softly, surely**

**Blue turns to white foam**

**Gloriously back to blue**

**Receding back, though not gone forever**

**Alone I am, enjoying this beauty**

**Wish you where here**

**Stamped on my heart and this picture**

**Soothingly along the rhythm of the pain**

**Like waves crashing on these rocks**

**It does not end;**

**Nor do I wish it to.**

**Mistakes are made**

**Yet from them I do grow**

**I am sorry, not for leaving you**

**But for hurting you with my words**

**Thought I about they were as bad as your actions**

**I offer my forgiveness**

**Just as a broken wave asked its mother for**

**It father looking only night**

**But his pull strong**

**Sandy grains pass between my toes**

**As I try to pass beyond this pain**

**This memory; these calms waters**

**Deep blues, ocean skies, powder clouds**

**Are what I take with me of the time**

**Of the time we spent together**

**A broken tear, a ruffled heart**

**Were first to be packed away**

**Now, sitting here**

**Looking across the setting horizon**

**As the mother, her hands waves**

**Crash softly trying to comfort me**

**From my toes on up**

**She tries hard, though maybe, with nightfall**

**Father will try harder**

**Goodbye is all I've got left to do**

**But I know I won't leave**

**Not really, not forever**

**The best piece of my life have been taken**

**By the mother, watched now by the father**

**Left to my foul mouth, I cursed them both**

**Before learning I was the one to curse upon**

**For it was my heart, that made her choose**

**She made her choice, he was it**

**Not I, not the man I used to be**

**For he died the day they both did**

**Buried beneath the waves**

**In Davy Jones's locker though**

**Not locked away**

**Restless upon the floor**

**Scuttling like a bottom feeder I was**

**To find the reason and**

**Hating even more**

**Washing my tears off the sand**

**Beckoning me forward**

**He is dead, not me**

**He is gone from this place**

**He is the one you asked for**

**Let me live, please**

**I lost her, my love**

**I lost my best friend**

**I lost myself**

**Let me live, mother, let me live**
