Work Text:
Lately something's been on my mind
Not my lack of love through years defined
~*~
But perhaps something profounder still
something not easily expressed with a quill
~*~
A Sentiment felt deep in the heart
that perhaps I could have been a small part
~*~
of a group filled with joy and can
be a family now without Azkaban
~*~
but only cruelty must exist at the core
to have a young boy love and crave more
~*~
and yet only to take his one chance away
before I could know how my life would play
~*~
can I not love without all the pain
or am I only, the bad things to gain?
~*~
I distance myself from anyone dear
for they can't get hurt if I am not near
~*~
that's the logic my brain does now spout
take out the cause...which kicks me out
~*~
and the safer they'll be
am I the only one with this idea i see?
~*~
