Letters and Poems From Me to You

Disclaimer: J. K. Rowling rocks. Enough said.

Summary: A series of letter and poems written by Hermione to Harry.

Authors Note (IMPORTANT): This is basically a collection of poems and letters that I wrote from Hermione to Harry. This has been something I've enjoyed, because it intrigues me to go into Hermione's perspective and see how she's feeling. These really aren't linked together to make a story, but aren't nearly long enough to post alone. I don't know what the protocol for something like this is, so I'm just going to leave its status at constantly "in progress."

That said, I will put new ones up probably when I go too long without posting a new fic, or when I simply want to because I'm sick of seeing it on my computer and not posting it. I'm not really sure how many there will be.

Anyway, I decided to post this selection first. It's a 48-line poem entitled "Green Eyes" and it's basically the huge mess of thoughts that flow through Hermione's head as she looks into Harry's eyes one night (they are already together at this point). Enjoy!

Green Eyes

By Hermione Granger

I look in your eyes and what do I see

But a sea of green staring back at me

There's also a fire of emotion inside

It's also something you're trying to hide

I keep searching for clue of what you're feeling

And all the while you don't realize you're stealing

My heart from me and I don't know what to do

I just know my world's empty when there is no you

So I try to stay close while you push me away

You never seem to have something to say

So I chatter on about studies and books

And I don't fail to notice other people's hidden looks

There's a pain deep inside me as I study your face

I'm searching for an opening but can't find a trace

I know that there's something you're not saying

I know in your head that night keeps replaying

I long to tell you that you aren't to blame

As you look at me too and I see your shame

But I know that there's nothing I can say

Though I do wish you didn't have to pay

For the sins of those so below you

The price of the debt goes to You-Know-Who

Voldemort, there, I said it at last

Being scared of a name is a thing of the past

It's wrong to fear a sound and nothing more

For that isn't what those lives were taken for

I know you think this is your battle to fight

But if you take a step back you'll see quite a sight

For standing behind you are your loved ones and friends

Hogwarts, the Order, the list doesn't end

Then look one more time, and beside you you'll see

The smiling face of little old me

And while I'm not the strongest of sorts

And the fight is so tall and I keep falling short

I promise to do the best that I can

Because, I said it once and I'll say it again

I love you, silly man, and that alone is enough

For me to stick by your side when the going gets tough

The road ahead seems hard and is yet to begin

But if we stay side by side we are sure to win

For, you see, there is something that makes me go on

When the nights are dark, and the days are long

It's rare to see it, and though it's been awhile

The thing keeping me going is the thought of your smile

For I when I see it, I know things are okay

That it will all work out, no matter what they say

And I think if I try to keep going strong

I'll someday put it back on your face, right where it belongs.
