A/N: This is a poem I wrote from Harry's POV before the final battle. Who is the reciever? Ron, Hermione, Ginny maybe? It's up to you. I hope you like it.
One Last Goodbye
I write this with a heavy heart,
For I think my end is near.
I wish for this letter to be passed on,
To the ones I love so dear.
My journey started many years ago,
I soon learned it was my destiny.
To fight a battle of hope and fear,
And let events carry out as they may be.
I have struggled through the years,
With many sad and restless nights.
This burden too much for one to bear,
Scared and alone when I turn out the lights.
I want to say thank you,
For all that you have done.
You were always right there beside me,
You learned what it is like to feel numb.
I cannot put into words, these feelings,
Of my deepest gratitude and regret.
I pulled you into this world,
A world of horror, cruelty and contempt.
We, together, made a stand,
You stand so tall and proud.
Fearless for you own precious life,
To save me, you would fall to the ground.
I have but one request,
You have to promise you will try.
For if I do not make it out alive,
I do not want to see you cry.
I do not want to see your tears,
I do not want to hear your screams, your pain.
Please celebrate my life instead,
No pearly streaks of rain.
Look up into the black night sky,
Because that is where I am going to be.
I promise you, I will watch over you,
Yes, yes, it is really me.
I just wanted to say I love you,
One last time for real.
It is hard living each and every day,
Not knowing which will be your last meal.
You have given me the greatest gift,
A gift of friendship, a gift of love.
I would never change a single thing,
Even when darkness surrounds me like a glove.
My cold hands are trembling,
As I write this letter with a quill.
My deepest wish to rip and burn it,
I am much too young to write a will.
So this is it, a last goodbye,
Time for us to fight and kill.
This is a letter not meant to be read,
And I hope it never will.
